Cojaal’s Algeria road contract restarting?

In yet another reversal for a key Algerian road project, the Algerian Government has overturned its earlier decision to cancel Cojaal’s contract.

Talks are being carried to reach an agreement with Cojaal, which was initially awarded the contract to build a 399km stretch of motorway
