Madbouly: New cities are essential for Egypt's 40-year plan
Prime Minister Mostafa Madbouly confirmed that the creation of new cities in Egypt was a strategic necessity supported by a scientific vision. A national urban development plan has been prepared extending until 2052, including 39 new cities; 27 of them have already been implemented, and the rest are expected to be completed in the coming period. He explained that existing cities like New Cairo and 6th October host large populations, with New Cairo's population approaching 3 million, justifying the continued development of new cities within the fourth generation of urban areas. He also pointed out that the New Administrative Capital is not just an ordinary city, as the government has been relocated there, reflecting the project's importance in activating comprehensive development, reducing congestion, and addressing traffic and environmental challenges that threatened Cairo. Furthermore, he highlighted the country's achievements in developing unsafe areas, expanding sewage services to include more than 60% of villages, and building over 2 million housing units for low- and middle-income citizens, all aimed at promoting stability and achieving sustainable development until 2040.
