description This paper is concerned with the practical evaluation of the present state, and the future development requirements of telephone access service, for different cases in Saudi Arabia. A general methodology has been derived for this purpose. The methodology is applied to the various urban, semi-urban, and rural areas of both the Riyadh region and the Southern region, and to the whole country level, in order to obtain a comparison reference. The telephone access service contrasts of the two regions have been emphasized, and a future plan for closing the gap between the two regions has been derived using two different development scenarios to achieve satisfactory level of service at a specific target date.
