Around the world
Transitec has a wide experience of studies in Africa and the Near East with important projects carried out in
Cotonou and throughout Benin, Libreville, Dakar, Tananarive, Tunis, Sfax, Tangier, Fès, Nouakchott, and
Jerusalem, projects which touch on all aspects linked to transport, from the
planning to the implementation of the measures resulting from these
studies.
Thus, Transitec has a longstanding knowledge and appreciation of
the culture, habits and working conditions in African countries,
particularly in North, Central and West Africa, as well as in the Near
East.
Transitec has set up a permanent site in
Rabat,
on the African continent. This Transitec site in Morocco constitutes

Lisbon and Namur.
