The high-speed rail line connecting K\u00e9nitra to Marrakech has reached a significant milestone, with the Moroccan construction company STAM (Soci\u00e9t\u00e9 de Travaux Agricoles Marocains) securing a vital role. The company has been awarded Lot 3-bis of the civil engineering works, a contract valued at 2.4 billion dirhams (approximately $230 million). This success underscores Morocco’s commitment to leveraging local expertise in this transformative national endeavor.<\/p>\n

The tender process for the K\u00e9nitra-Marrakech high-speed line has been highly competitive, with both Moroccan and international companies vying for contracts. STAM’s winning proposal benefitted from Morocco’s national preference policy, ensuring that local firms play a leading role in reshaping the country’s rail infrastructure.<\/p>\n

Here’s the current breakdown of awarded contracts:<\/p>\n

    \n
  • Lot 1<\/strong>: China Railway Group (CREC 4) for 3.4 billion dirhams (63 km).<\/li>\n
  • Lot 2<\/strong>: Shandong Hi-Speed Engineering Construction Group, at 4.05 billion dirhams (64 km).<\/li>\n
  • Lot 3<\/strong>: Les Grands Travaux Routiers (GTR), a French subsidiary of Colas, for 2.15 billion dirhams.<\/li>\n
  • Lot 4<\/strong>: Moroccan company TGCC, securing a 2.8 billion dirhams contract (51 km).<\/li>\n
  • Lot 5<\/strong>: China Railway 20th Bureau Group (CRCC 20) for 1.8 billion dirhams.<\/li>\n
  • Lot 6<\/strong>: Jet Contractors, a Moroccan firm, for 2.098 billion dirhams (60 km).<\/li>\n
  • Lot 7<\/strong>: Mojazine, another local company, for 2 billion dirhams.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

    This balanced allocation highlights the strategic collaboration between Moroccan businesses and international giants, combining local knowledge with global technical expertise.<\/p>\n

    A game-changing vision for Morocco<\/strong><\/h4>\n

    The K\u00e9nitra-Marrakech high-speed rail (LGV) is a natural extension of the existing Tanger-K\u00e9nitra line, part of Morocco\u2019s long-term vision to modernize transportation infrastructure. By connecting key cities at record speeds, the project promises to catalyze economic growth, facilitate social mobility, and boost tourism.<\/p>\n

    Once operational\u2014targeted before 2030\u2014the LGV will link Morocco’s northern and southern regions, fostering cohesion across the nation. The 2030 deadline serves as both a challenge and an aspiration, symbolizing Morocco’s push toward becoming a regional leader in modern infrastructure.<\/p>\n

    STAM’s role in shaping the future<\/strong><\/h4>\n

    With the addition of Lot 3-bis to its portfolio, STAM solidifies its position as a critical player in Morocco\u2019s development. This contract involves advanced civil engineering works that will pave the way for smoother and faster rail connections. It also reinforces the growing competence of Moroccan companies in executing high-stakes infrastructure projects.<\/p>\n

    As construction continues, the K\u00e9nitra-Marrakech LGV is set to redefine how Morocco connects its cities, providing a new chapter of progress and innovation in the Kingdom’s transportation history.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
