PHASE 1 (ATTABA – ABASIA) (OPENED)

It consist of 5 underground Stations about 4.3 Km, an interchange with Line 2 at Attaba station, the construction took 4 years started in 2007 and opened in February 2012

The line was inaugurated less than six months behind the original planned opening date and in time for a revised target, after facing significant tunneling problems in 2009, as well as the political upheaval that began in 2011.

Technical challenges for contractors include waterlogged ground and cramped conditions for above-ground work

Stations are 150m long, located at a depth of 14m to 58m. The tunnel will have a diameter of 9.4m

UPDATE OF PHASES 3 & 4

Zamalak citizens opposed the Line 3 rout through their island from their own environmental prospective

NTA announced that an agreement is reached to dig tunnel deeper but the location of the station seems to be not yet agreed

TBM finished phase 2 where it is the start of phase 4,

to mobilize machine as per schedule to start 3, high cost

Decision made not to mobilize TBM and continuously to start phase 4

Phase 4 extended 6 km to Al Salam suburban

LINE GEOGRAPHIC

the lines will have both at-grade and viaduct sections. After the underground El-Sudan station, the northern branch will rise on to a viaduct and run within the existing rail corridor on its way to Imbaba station, This sharing of Egyptian National Railways (ENR) land will avoid the problem of finding additional space in the crowded city. The line will stay on a viaduct until it has crossed the city ring road using an elevated, suspended bridge. After this, it will drop to grade level.

TECHNICAL & POLITICAL CHALLENGES

line 3 was inaugurated less than six months behind the original planned opening date and in time for a revised target, after facing significant tunneling problems in 2009, as well as the political upheaval that began in 2011

The popular uprising in Egypt had limited impact, that continued almost uninterrupted throughout the occupation of Tahrir Square & other unrest beyond Cairo.

The French lead contractor, confirms that work stopped for just a few weeks in February 2011 before restarting with additional site security in early March.

Phase 2 opened in May 2014 about one year late

EXAMPLES OF FACED

TECHNICAL OBSTACLES

The underground utilities in Cairo is so complicated and causes too many delays to the project plan

Press Release by National Authority of Tunneling that Boring of 3rd line second phase ceased because dispute between Electrical Authority on estimated cost of redirecting their cables away of the metro route

The negotiation between the two authorities started 3 months ago Electrical authority exaggerated the cost as per the National Authority of Tunneling


20

FINANCE STATUS

The political instability is expected to have more of an effect on the financing of ongoing work and, particularly, the later phases of the line. These are currently being redesigned to save costs by using more above-ground running section

France provided a 280 million dollar loan for the second phase of the project to French companies involved in the project

France approved Loan of Euro 900 Million to finance phase three

Egypt seek LE 12 Billion to complete line 3
