Boosting capacity here addresses surging demand on lines plagued by resource shortages and persistent overcrowding.<\/p>\n<p>Urban and suburban transport firms also gained ground. Algiers&#8217; public entity got 320 buses, while Oran&#8217;s received 50. These additions should ease strain on city networks, long criticized for chronic shortcomings.<\/p>\n<p>The ceremony drew key sector figures, including the manufacturing facility&#8217;s director general, the ministry&#8217;s secretary general, and the director general for mobility and logistics.
