Algeria has revealed plans to continue its heavy investment in infrastructure expansion during 2013. The Ministry of Public Works is planning to launch 13 major projects during 2013. Meanwhile, 30 airport and 57 port projects have already been completed and another 200 projects are undergoing consideration. Of the 13 projects set to be launched, two are for new expressways to link the highlands to the East-West motorway. The expressways will stretch 4,000km, with work on the first 2,000km to commence during the first quarter of 2013. The country is also gearing up its settlements for land expropriation, as so far only 3% of the 20,000 who lost homes to make way for the East-West motorway have managed to resolve their claims.
