Future works are scheduled to include:
- Doubling the road in both directions
- Upgrading all vital networks such as water, electricity, and telecommunications
- Road paving and sidewalk arrangement
- Creating car parks and urban transport bus stops
- Installing modern public lighting
- Implementing vertical and horizontal signage
- Constructing new roundabouts to improve traffic flow
Special attention will also be given to the environmental and aesthetic aspect through the creation of green spaces and planting trees along both sides of the street.
Officials expect this project to significantly contribute to improving the quality of life for Taza residents and enhancing the city’s attractiveness to both visitors and investors alike.
The project, which falls within the framework of urban rehabilitation of the city, is seen as a crucial step towards modernizing Taza’s infrastructure and preparing it for future growth and development.
