In a written question addressed to the Minister of Equipment and Water, Nizar Barka, parliamentarian Abdellatif El-Zaim underlined the urgency of creating a substitution in the region of Sidi Bou Othmane, in the province of Rehamna, on the highway linking Casablanca to Marrakech, with the objective of supporting investment projects and promoting local development in the region.
The member of the Authenticity and Modernity Party team called for revealing the measures that the ministry intends to take to accelerate the realization of this vital project, as well as the precise timetable for its implementation, in addition to the measures decided to ensure the adaptation of the road network to major investment projects in the region.
The parliamentarian stressed that the Sidi Bou Othman region is experiencing growing economic activity, driven by the launch of ambitious investment projects, the most notable of which are the extension of the industrial zone over an area of 120 hectares, the development from the food industries zone, the logistics zone and the vegetable and fruit wholesale market.
The parliamentarian explained that these projects have great potential to stimulate the local economy and strengthen the attractiveness of the region for national and international investments.
