Morocco Plans Two Major Highway Projects to Boost Infrastructure and Connectivity
Two new highways are in the works in Morocco, as part of the national road infrastructure plan. The Ministry of Equipment and Water has confirmed the project of a highway connecting Fez to Tetouan in a letter addressed to a parliamentarian.
This new 255-kilometer highway will pass through Ouazzane and Chefchaouen, with an estimated cost of 18.5 billion dirhams. This highway between Fez and Tetouan had already been mentioned about fifteen years ago.
Moreover, a second highway project is also under study. It is a 104-kilometer axis connecting Guercif to Nador, for which a budget of 7 billion dirhams has been allocated. This investment will provide the region with direct access to the West Med port.
