Municipalities Announce Full Readiness for Hajj Season 1447

As the Hajj season of 1447 approaches, the Secretariat of the Holy Capital, under the Ministry of Municipalities, announces the full operational and service readiness to ensure the safety and well-being of pilgrims. This comprehensive municipal system is designed to enhance public health and improve the efficiency of field responses across all vital locations.

The ministry has marshaled significant resources, including over 22,000 field personnel and more than 3,000 vehicles and pieces of equipment. Emergency teams are on standby 24/7, supported by accommodation facilities and advanced laboratories, both fixed and mobile, to bolster field operations throughout the pilgrimage.

Extensive work has been undertaken to upgrade infrastructure, including a vast network of internal roads, bridges, and tunnels, alongside lighting systems, all geared towards facilitating smooth movement and ensuring the safety of the guests of Allah. Similar preparations extend to the holy sites themselves, with dedicated infrastructure to manage large crowds and enhance services in high-density areas. Furthermore, rigorous sanitation, environmental health, and food safety measures are in place, supported by numerous sanitation units, specialized personnel, and advanced laboratories conducting rapid testing to guarantee the quality and safety of food and commercial services provided to pilgrims.
