A new 507km Mediterranean bypass to encourage economic growth in northern Morocco is a step nearer to completion.

The 120km Jebha to Tétouan stretch of the overall US $ 805.85 million (MAD 7.2bn) project has just had its inauguration.

As well as being a potential key to economic growth, the bypass will improve travel conditions for around three million northern Morocco residents, increase road safety, and encourage the integration of urban centres crossed by the infrastructure.

The completed bypass will reduce journey times between Tangier and Saïdia by three hours.
