The tender process is now underway for the first stretch of the US$272 million motorway connecting Guercif with Nador in Morocco. Tenders for this 36.5km section of the motorway are being handled by the Ministry of Equipment and Water.

This first stretch will link Guercif with Saka and is being split into three separate lots. The section of motorway will feature two lanes in either direction and the work also involves building six viaducts as well as an interchange for Sika.

The new motorway section will improve transport between the industrial and port complex at Nador West Med and Morocco’s motorway system at Guercif. This will cut journey times on the route from 180 minutes to just 90 minutes.

A significant portion of the necessary funding is being provided by the African Development Bank (AfDB).
