Cairo, June 27 | The Egyptian cabinet announced that more than 70 per cent of the structural works in the first stage of the New Administrative Capital (NAC) have been completed.
According to the New Administrative Capital Company, the state-run company that oversees the construction of the new city, more than 70 per cent of the NACs first phase, which spans an area of about 40,000 acres, was finalised, reports Xinhua news agency.
Between 70 to 90 per cent of the construction of 10 residential neighbourhoods in the city has been completed.
Additionally, a number of giant projects have almost been completed, including the government district, the financial and business district, as well as the Central Business District (CBD), the cabinet said in a statement.
Being built some 50 km east of Cairo, the CBD, with its Iconic Tower, the most striking skyscraper in the district, is being constructed by the China State Construction Engineering Corporation.
Egypts new administrative capital is designed to relocate major government institutions from the increasingly congested and overpopulated capital of Cairo, which is home to about one-fifth of the countrys 100 million population.
The government also expects the new capital would create around 2 million jobs.
