GETEC contributes to bridge construction in Doha

GETEC Partners is contributing to the construction of a pedestrian bridge across Al Furousiya Street in Doha, Qatar. The multi-laned road is one of the main arteries in the vicinity of Wadi Al Sail West. GETEC Partners delivered TERRAFORCE Blocks and geogrid fabrics to the construction site and is now in charge of installing the retaining wall system.

Qatar’s Public Works Authority (Ashghal) commenced with the construction of the bridge in August 2020. The bridge is part of the National Road Safety Strategy and will connect the Aspire Park with the nearby neighborhood. It will benefit pedestrians, cyclists, motorists and persons with special needs.

„We are very pleased to be part of this project,“ says Ahmed Amrou, Getec Partners’ managing director. „The bridge will not only improve the safety of pedestrians but also add to the convenience of the people living in the surrounding area.“

Monorail Project in Egypt

Big project for GETEC Partners in Egypt

GETEC Partners takes part in a major infrastructure project in Egypt. Over the coming years two monorail lines will be built –
a 54 kilometre section connecting the New Administrative City with East Cairo and a second 42 kilometre section, linking 6th October City with Giza. The project is expected to cost about four billion Euro.

GETEC will deliver the moulds to produce the concrete elements for the train track, starting next week.
„We are very happy to be part of this enterprise, which will mean an enormous step forward for Egypt and especially for Cairo,” says Ahmed Amrou, managing director of GETEC Partners. „It will make life much easier for millions of people who have to commute every day in and out of Cairo.” With 21 respectively 12 stations the system will offer a dense grit of entering point to the monorail.

Monorail systems, which consist of trains running on elevated concrete rails, are already being operated in many cities around the world such as Tokyo, Sao Paolo and several cities in China. With about 20 million people living in the Egyptian capital the city greatly suffers from traffic congestion. The new monorail in Egypt will have two parallel tracks, travel at a speed of 80 kph and has a planned capacity of about 45.000 passengers per hour.
