In a long-awaited step by the local population, the allocation of a significant financial envelope estimated at 90 million centimes was announced, aimed at preparing the entrance to the city of Al Hoceima and restructuring a number of neighborhoods, within the framework of strengthening infrastructure and improving the city's attractiveness.
This ambitious project is expected to include comprehensive rehabilitation works for the city entrance, reflecting a decent urban image and keeping pace with the development dynamics the region is experiencing, in addition to field interventions to rehabilitate the targeted neighborhoods, by improving roads, strengthening public lighting networks, and addressing a number of constraints related to infrastructure. This workshop comes within the context of continuous efforts made by various authorities and elected bodies, in order to improve the quality of life within the city, and to respond to the aspirations of the population who have long expressed their need for such structured projects. In this regard, a number of local actors praised the role played by the Governor of Al Hoceima Province, Fouad Haji, the Head of the Provincial Council, and the Head of the Municipality, through serious advocacy and continuous coordination, which resulted in bringing this project to fruition after a period of waiting. Observers believe that this initiative will give a strong boost to the path of local development, and that it will contribute to improving the urban landscape and enhancing the attractiveness of the city of Al Hoceima, both at the economic and tourist levels, in the prospect of achieving balanced and sustainable development.
