EUR 540 mn Cairo-Alexandria freight railway awarded: <\/strong>The Madbouly government has awarded the EUR 540 mn Cairo-Alexandria freight railway bypass to a consortium of French and local firms, a government source told EnterpriseAM.<\/p>\n

The details: <\/strong>The project will be implemented in three phases \u2014 kicking off halfway through 2026 and slated for completion in 2030. When the project was first announced a few years back, it was said that it will be able to handle 15 container trains per day by 2030 and up to 50 trains by 2060.<\/p>\n

(Tap or click the headline above to read this story with all of the links <\/strong>to our background as well as external sources.)<\/p>\n

Who\u2019s involved?<\/strong> The alliance features French rolling stock company Alstom, Egyptian engineering firm Concrete Plus, and Elsewedy Electric subsidiary Rowad Modern Engineering, sources told Asharq Business<\/a>. The consortium will be responsible for the design, supply, and operations of the project\u2019s mechanical systems, signals, and central control systems.<\/p>\n

There was a lot of competition for the project<\/strong>, with five international firms reportedly<\/a>qualifying<\/a> for the project back in 2023. <\/p>\n

And who\u2019s paying?<\/strong> The project will be fully funded by the World Bank\u2019s International Bank for Reconstruction and Development, our source said.<\/p>\n

It\u2019s been a long time coming: <\/strong>The project has been on our radar since 2022, after the World Bank approved a USD 400 mn financing agreement<\/a> to boost the performance of the country\u2019s transport and logistics sectors and support a shift towards low-carbon rail systems. It appears the amount agreed upon has increased to accommodate the project\u2019s updated price tag. <\/p>\n

IN CONTEXT-<\/strong> The project is one of seven logistics corridors<\/a> the government is looking to develop in the years to come \u2014 part of a major plan to boost logistic channels in the country. It aims to hike freight capacity from 8 mn tons a year to 13 mn tons a year by 2030.<\/p>\n

Alstom\u2019s coming in heavy: <\/strong>Alstom upped the investment ticket for its Borg El Arab railway manufacturing complex, up to EUR 100 mn, Egypt Managing Director Ramy Salah Eldeen told EnterpriseAM<\/a> on the sidelines of TransMEA last month. The firm inked<\/a> a land usufruct agreement with the General Authority for Land and Dry Ports for the project in April \u2014 at the time the project had a EUR 80 mn price tag.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
