A MINDBLOWING multibillion-dollar bridge connecting two continents across the Red Sea dubbed the “Moses bridge” is set to be built.

The extraordinary bridge will link Saudi Arabia and Egypt across the sea that Moses is said to have parted over 3,200 years ago.

Ambitious plans for the incredible bridge were announced nearly a decade ago in 2016 by Saudi Arabia‘s King Salman.

The mind-boggling megaproject is expected to cost an eye-watering $4billion – financed by the Arab Kingdom.

Egyptian transport minister Kamel al-Wazir has now confirmed that the planning stage has now been completed.

He mentioned: “We have finalized the plans for the bridge connecting Egypt and Saudi Arabia, and we are prepared to execute it at any moment, whether as a bridge or a tunnel.”

The minister stated that the present method of linking the two nations was through the Arab Bridge Maritime Co., which currently operates 13 ships that transport goods between the countries.

The new build will make trading cargo much more efficient – and will compliment Saudi Arabia’s megalomaniac NEOM project.

The jaw-dropping bridge will connect Egypt’s Sinai Peninsula with the Arab Kingdom, crossing the Straits of Tiran.

Ras Hamid in Saudi Arabia will be linked to the Red Sea resort of Sharm el-Sheik in Egypt.

Egyptian president Abdel Fattah el-Sisi previously suggested naming the structure “King Salman bin Abdulaziz Bridge” in 2016.

But it has been dubbed the “Moses Bridge” for its iconic location.

It is hoped that the project will create thousands of jobs on each side of the sea.

The bridge will also provide an alternative pilgrimage route, and is expected to hold over a million travellers per year.

The idea for a Red Sea bridge linking the two countries has been proposed several times before but has always failed to become a reality.

Floated ideas for the revolutionary structure date back to 1988.

A slew of delays for the Saudi-Egypt bridge has also plagued its long-running history.

The completed plans coincide with another bridge being designed over the Red Sea, stretching 20 miles, with leadership by Osama Bin Laden’s brother.

The structure, dubbed the “Bridge of the Horns”, is expected to be a combination of causeway and suspension bridge with four piers.

It also comes as Saudi Arabia continues to struggle with its groundbreaking $500billoin megacity project.

The Middle Eastern nation’s NEOM project – which would see a high-tech utopia built from scratch near the country’s border with Jordan – has long been cursed.

One former employee shared their story of working at the gigaproject with The Sun, shedding light on the atrocities taking place behind NEOM’s doors.
