Morocco: Transport workers end strike

moroccoAfricaNews reporter said it was a difficult moment for many workers who heavily rely on public transport to work.

The transportation workers were striking because many of them will lose their job. Rabat transport management will be assigned to one company called Stareo, constituted by Veolia Group, and two of old Moroccan bus operators.

Veolia Transport and its Moroccan partners, the Bouzid and Hakam groups, have been awarded a 15-year contract to operate the bus system for Rabat, Sale and Temara, when the operating company created specifically to execute the concession contract will start up operations. Veolia Transport will have a majority share in the operating company (51.04%), while the Bouzid group will hold 28.06% and the Hakam group 20.90%.
