🇪🇬🚝🌆 Commercial service has begun on the East of #Nile #Monorail in Greater #Cairo, marking Africa’s first monorail system. Delivered by Alstom with Orascom Construction and #Arab Contractors, the 56-kilometre line has 22 stations, 16 now operational, linking East Cairo to the New Administrative Capital. The driverless Innovia system using CBTC GoA4 signalling has capacity of up to 45,000 passengers per hour per direction, easing congestion and improving connectivity across key districts. Journey times between El Moshir Tantawi and Justice City stations are reduced from around 1 hour 20 minutes by road to about 40 minutes. The project is also the first in Africa to feature platform screen doors. Vehicles were manufactured in Derby, #UK, with testing and commissioning led locally, with around 98% #Egyptian workforce involvement, supporting Egypt’s Vision 2030 and long-term #sustainable #urban #mobility goals. https://www.alstom.com/press-releases-news/2026/5/new-era-smart-and-sustainable-mobility-egypt-commercial-service-begins-east-nile-monorail-transforming-urban-connectivity-across-greater-cairo
