Expertise France is supporting the Kingdom of Bahrain in its urban and land use planning policy

This institutional partnership will lead to the implementation of the French-Bahrain Initiative on urban planning through a public-private consortium implemented by Expertise France, with the French engineering firms Arep, Egis, and Setec.

The objective is to assist the General Directorate of Urban Planning (DGPU) of the Ministry of Works, Municipalities Affairs and Urban Planning to reinforce the Directorate in its key role of coordinator of issues associated with land use planning of the island. The project should also lead to the development of a master plan on an area defined in Manama, capital city of Bahrain. The signature of a service agreement will complete this memorandum of understanding.
