The Chinese group BYD specialised into green transportation signed up an agreement with the city council of Alexandria. Is the Egyptian authority has not communicated yet the amount of the giant project, the Chinese group remains silent as well.

Indeed the working progress could be reduced by three and could be divided by 5 on the general site cost. The Yungui system has a maximum speed of 80 km per hour. The Chinese constructor has spent so far 750 million dollars to develop the monorail technology.
