Concrete Plus has announced its participation in an Egyptian-French consortium with France’s Alstom to deliver two railway development projects in Egypt, under contracts signed with the Egyptian National Railways Authority. The projects form part of the state’s broader plans to upgrade transport infrastructure.

The projects include the development of the Cairo–Alexandria corridor, Package Two, which involves the construction, rehabilitation and double-tracking of 117 kilometres of railway lines, alongside upgrades to the associated signalling systems.

The consortium will also deliver the Robiki–10th of Ramadan–Belbeis railway line project, which aims to strengthen logistics connectivity between industrial zones, ports and commercial hubs.

The projects are supported and financed by international institutions, including the World Bank, the European Bank for Reconstruction and Development, and the European Investment Bank, reflecting their importance in advancing Egypt’s transport and logistics sectors.

Tarek Youssef, Founder and Chief Executive Officer of Concrete Plus, said the company’s participation reflects confidence in the capabilities and experience of Egyptian firms in delivering major infrastructure projects in line with international standards.

He added that the projects will enhance connectivity between industrial areas, ports and key transport networks, supporting Egypt’s wider economic development efforts.

Youssef noted that the new contracts further strengthen Concrete Plus’s position as a key partner in delivering strategic infrastructure projects and supporting Egypt’s sustainable development plans.
