A new link for Morroco’s road network will connect the port of Kénitra Atlantique to the country’s motorway system. Morocco’s Ministry of Infrastructure is commissioning a study to analyse the possible routes and feasibility for the new port link. This stretch of road will be built to a motorway standard and will link with the A2 motorway that also provides connectivity to Fez and Meknes. The new motorway stretch will also connect with the A1 route running northwards to Tangiers.
