Transport Minister Galal Saeed met Monday with leaders of the French Development Agency (AFD) in Paris.

They discussed the AFD contribution to the development of the Metro Line 3 of Ataba-Imbaba-Giza, expected to go into operation in less than a month after all finances and contracts are finalized.

Final procedures of funding El Raml Tram in Alexandria were probed during the meeting as well. 

A similar meeting was held in July between Saeed and an AFD delegation to probe its role in supporting underground Metro projects and developing Alexandria tram lines.
