The project represents the First phase of the development plan for Cairo University's surrounding area (Saft 2) to decrease the traffic pressure and the waiting rows in the university surrounding area and maximize utilization from Saft El Labn Axis as a vital one in Giza and its eastern expansion till Cairo Governorate.
The project is aiming at facilitating the traffic in El Nahda Square and Giza Entrance at the intersection of El Gamaa Bridge with Mourad Street because it is considered the most important and crowded area in Giza.
