Project Description

The RCU (Royal Commission for AlUla) engaged HCC as a main contractor to execute temporary stabilization works andarchaeological cleaning of units, streets and tayarahs within cluster Z2.10 located along the Incense Road on the western edge ofAlUla Old Town.

The successive collapse of the superstructures of houses and tayarahs in this area caused serious structural damage to the facade walls on both sides of the street and inside some units.

The area has been secured to make it accessible to the archaeological teamwith the installation of scaffolding, propping and shoring systems in the streets and inside all units to allow clearance works andexcavations.
