At Al-Urubah Park in Riyadh, part of Green Riyadh, AVK Saudi delivers reliable drainage solutions that support a greener, more resilient urban future.
A different context can be seen at Al-Urubah Park in Riyadh, which is being developed as part of the Green Riyadh programme — a flagship urban initiative aligned with Saudi Vision 2030 and the ambition to position the capital among the world’s most liveable cities. It is not only about greenery and landscape; it is about building an urban environment that people can truly inhabit, enjoy and feel connected to.
Today, the park continues to take shape, with full completion planned for 2026. But its future shape is already clear. Spanning approximately 754,000 m² in the Al-Rahmaniyyah District, Al-Urubah Park is envisioned as a public space woven directly into the city’s daily rhythm. More than 600,000 trees and shrubs will create a lush green landscape covering around 65% of the entire park. A 3-kilometre elevated panoramic walkway, rising up to 12 metres, will open sweeping views across Riyadh, while 14 kilometres of pathways, terraces, sports facilities and event areas are being designed not for occasional visits, but for everyday use.
Green Riyadh is not only a landscaping project. It is a complex engineering challenge that depends on reliable drainage, irrigation and long-term water management . These systems
must operate effectively in varying hydraulic conditions, withstand intensive public use, and do so while remaining almost invisible within a highly aesthetic environment.
Drainage outfall installations are currently progressing at Al-Urubah Park, and AVK is proud to play a key role in this project. Our responsibility is straightforward in definition but demanding in practice: to provide valves that will operate safely, efficiently and sustainably for many years, ensuring the park remains resilient, functional and comfortable for everyone who will use it.
The drainage equipment includes:
• Orbinox RR Series flap valves
• Diameters DN1500 and DN2000
During the installation phase, all equipment remains fully accessible for inspection and verification. Once stone cladding and finishing works are completed, the valves become part of the surrounding structure — technically robust, yet visually invisible to park users.
Despite the callenges in scale and setting, both installations reflect a practical engineering mindset. Decisions are guided by operating conditions, long-term reliability requirements and careful integration into existing systems.
For AVK, Green Riyadh is more than another project reference.
It is a contribution to shaping the future of Riyadh. It is proof that infrastructure can be both technically excellent and deeply meaningful. And it is a reminder that when engineering is done well, it quietly improves everyday life — making cities greener, safer and better places to live.
We are proud to be part of this story.
