Jazan Municipality has developed 145 walkways and sports routes throughout the district in an effort to promote physical exercise and public health. According to the municipality, the project aims to create a safe, healthy environment while also providing spaces for exercise and social contact.
Each walkway includes lighting, seating, parking, and planted green spaces, as well as wide lanes for walkers and joggers. Decorative features and shaded areas were introduced to improve the experience and make the places more appealing to people of all ages.
The pathways are designed to stimulate regular physical exercise by offering safe, well-maintained routes, resulting in healthier lifestyles and a reduction in chronic diseases such as diabetes and obesity.
Residents hailed the move as a significant step toward bettering community health and lifestyle.
