The Egyptian Transport Ministry has awarded Hassan Allam Holdings (HAH) a $220-million deal to construct two stations and four bridges as part of a high-speed train project.
The two stations are Alamein and Wadi El-Natroun, and the four bridges consist of two road bridges and two rail bridges.
While Hassan Allam Construction builds two stations, Hassan Allam Roads and Bridges will construct the four bridges under the same project.
“The high-speed train is one of the most important national projects that the Egyptian government has announced,” Hassan Allam Holding CEO Hassan Allam said. “The new railway project will provide easy and convenient mass transportation for all citizens – something that Hassan Allam Holding is always keen on being part of.”
The project will contribute to the development of Egypt’s Red Sea coastal region, accelerating growth in the Suez Canal Economic Zone.
Moreover, it will provide a reliable railway network for residents of New Cairo, Sixth of October, El-Alamein, Borg El-Arab and Alexandria.
