Maâzouz emphasised that regions now play a central role in Morocco’s ecological transition, under the country’s advanced regionalisation framework.
He noted that the Casablanca-Settat region alone has committed almost $2.5 billion, accounting for roughly 40 per cent of its updated Regional Development Plan, to both urban and rural mobility infrastructure and equipment.
The region is rolling out an integrated transport model built around a “non-polluting train-tramway duo”, which will be reinforced by a modernised bus fleet and a new digital multimodal platform.
This platform will manage traffic more intelligently, provide real-time passenger information, and support seamless connections between different modes of transport.
Beyond public transport, the expansion of road networks in urban, peri-urban, and rural areas has already improved traffic flow and reduced emissions.
Monitoring stations showed a marked improvement in air quality between 2023 and 2025, a trend Maâzouz attributes to the shift away from private car use.
This bold investment aligns with Morocco’s National Charter for Sustainable Mobility 2035 and its National Low-Carbon Strategy 2030, frameworks designed to build inclusive, competitive, and resilient communities where clean mobility is a key lever for both quality of life and economic attractiveness.
