Highway connecting the terminal part of the Fez-Oujda motorway to the East-West Algerian highway

The project aims to:

• Connect the terminal part of the Fès-Oujda motorway (in service since 2011) to the East-West Algerian highway, the end of which is located on the Moroccan-Algerian border (slightly north of the Zouj Beghal border crossing);
• Ensure the continuity of the Moroccan part of the trans-Maghrebin highway linking Mauritania, Morocco, Algeria, Tunisia and Libya.

DESCRIPTION

The project serves a planned infrastructure asset of another sector, but there is less than 50% overlap in the geography serviced by the proposed project and the other sector planned asset.

3 exchange points with the road network are planned: - Bifurcation-Origin of the project: connection on the Taza-Oujda motorway; - Interchange - Oujda Nord (RN2): also allows the RN2 to serve Saidia; - Isly Interchange (New Town); - A full-lane toll gate; - A service area.
