New Cairo
In 2015, the Egyptian government announced an extraordinary project to build a new capital city. The project is perhaps the greatest undertaking in Egyptian history and ranks with the construction of the Suez Canal and the Great Pyramid project of the ancient era in terms of its scope and cost.
This project was partly in response to the significant spike in the capital’s population since 1984. The population had increased from 8 million to over 22 million over that time. And the high levels of congestion and pollution were taking its toll on the liveability of Cairo and the productivity and health of the workforce.
