African Loan to Morocco to Expand Railway Network
The African Development Bank has approved a loan of 205 million euros for Morocco to enhance its high-speed rail network, particularly the section between Kenitra and Marrakech, as part of preparations to host the 2030 World Cup. The project aims to reduce travel time between major cities and increase operational capacity. It includes the construction of a tunnel in Rabat, connections to major airports, as well as an upgrade to the train fleet through the purchase of 168 new trains with technology transfer and a focus on boosting local production. This step is part of a broader plan to invest $10 billion in the Moroccan railway network.
