looks to be pretty close to the buildings,
really close,
because it is, in some cases just 50 centimeters, but it is for a good cause,
in Egypt’s capitol, Cairo’s Al-Haram district, right next to a
number of residential buildings on Nasr El-Din Street, a new road bridge is
being built, authorities in Cairo, Egypt, have come under fire for approving
the construction of an “essential” highway, but authorities announced that the
bridge had all the necessary permits, Mahmoud Nassar, head of the Central
Agency for Construction in Egypt, told Arab
News that the new Teraet Al-Zomor Bridge was a crucial piece of
infrastructure and will be useful to the neighborhood, Mohamed Fouad, a member
of the Egyptian parliament, said that the Teraet Al-Zomor Bridge was
constructed in a way that directly affects the road beneath it, put residents
in danger due to its proximity to residential buildings, and violated people’s
privacy, still, local authorities seem determined to go through with its
construction, calling it an essential part of the urban infrastructure,
then the bombshell, it was the residential buildings that had been built
without a permit! therefore, an order for their demolition has already been
issued, the new to be displaced residents will receive a quota of the 250 million Egyptian
pounds ($15.8 million) allocated as compensation for the residents of said
buildings, I am surprised that all of these buildings could have been completed without someone noticing, but there it is, I guess a lawyer did not look into the legality of them before they were sold to unsuspecting buyers.
