SYSTRA Egypt is proud to support the Egyptian authorities in most of their transport and mobility transformation projects thanks to a relationship of trust with the Egyptian Ministry of Transport that has been established over many years.

These projects improve the daily lives of millions of people, whether they are passengers on the Cairo Metro, one of the world’s busiest metropolitan networks, motorists crossing the Suez Canal via the Port Said tunnels, or, in the future, passengers aboard the future Electric Express Train high-speed train.

Our ambition is to continue to make life easier for residents by creating and modernising transport networks throughout the country. SYSTRA is recognised as the industry leader in Egypt.
