Egypt’s Prime Minister Mostafa Madbouly met with representatives of 90 French companies in Paris on Monday.
During the meeting, the Prime Minister received an inquiry from representatives of a French company about the government’s efforts in the field of clean transportation or green transportation, especially the BRT system.
Madbouly stressed that the government has a great interest in green transportation, saying: “We are moving strongly in sustainable transportation projects such as the monorail, the BRT rapid transit bus project, and the electric high-speed rail.
He explained that these moves emphasise the government seriousness to transform Egypt’s mass transit sector, making it environment-friendly in line with international standards.
He added: “The BRT system is one of the most important tools, as it is characterised by high quality, in terms of user convenience, and we are in the process of installing this system after the completion of the development of Cairo Ring Road by the end of this year. The system will also be installed in the New Administrative Capital and in several other cities such as the 6th of October.”
He called on French companies to invest in this promising field.
Madbouly stressed that Egypt prioritizes digital transformation and has taken serious steps to implement the “Digital Egypt” strategy.
He noted that artificial intelligence will play a pivotal role in the “new republic,” adding that the government’s move to the New Administrative Capital is an opportunity to switch to a smart and developed government.
