New images show incredible development of Saudi Arabia's £800 billion project 'The Line'

Branded as an 'impossible' task, new images of Saudi Arabia's $1 trillion city have been released to the public.

'The Line' is the country's ambitious attempt to build a city of nine million people into a 105 mile (169 km) line through the desert by 2030, and we have been given updates... well, sort of.

The area is being built in the Tabuk province of Saudi Arabia, with the urban area being called Neom, the same name as the construction company behind the multi billion dollar project.

There are a number of cool and futuristic aspects to the project, such as a mirror skyscraper and buildings floating over the private Neom Marina.

But what is the Marina for, I hear you ask?

Well, it's for The Line residents to park their superyachts of course, with there also being a private beach, a luxury golf resort... oh, and a sports stadium 1,000 feet above the ground.

Described by Neom's social media accounts as a place that will 'transform how we live' as it will 'redefine livability', the original aim was to get 1.5 million people in the walls of the revolutionary city by 2030.

But the latest released photos have showed that the city is firmly staying away from reality, with the images looking like something an artist would draw out to imagine the future in 100 years.

The new photos show the sheer size of what they have planned, with the picture above showing how the private marina will look with the buildings 'floating' on top of it, as they are camouflaged by the mirror-like structure.

It has been rumoured that it would be a hazard to birds, who may unknowingly fly into the structure and get injured or die from the impact.

It's a problem that needs to be ironed out, but you do have to admit that it looks quite cool, an invisible line through the desert.

Since they broke ground on the ambitious project, experts have questioned the environmental effects of the project and the numerous human rights violations at play.

The local Howeitat tribe have been protesting after being forcibly expelled from their home that was on the strip of land being used for The Line, while expat workers have been complaining about abusive working conditions.

This photo looks like a scene from a dystopian movie, but the idea here is to make it look as natural as possible, barring the massive gap in the city.

The Line would reflect its surroundings out, making it look like there was nothing there from either side, as this ship makes its way into the Marina.

But its reflectiveness has been slammed as a potential point of confusion for passing ships.

A lot of the technology being used for the project has been kept under wraps, with many questioning its capabilities and existence.

The idea of the city came from Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman wanting the country's economy away from its reliance on oil, which is finite, leading to his investment into the project.

It has also been rumoured that the final cost of the whole project may sit closer to £2 trillion if they build everything as planned.

Pennies, isn't it?
