In February 2025, the China Railway Signal and Communication Corporation (CRRC) consortium successfully won the bid for the mechanical and electrical EPC project of the AIN NAADJA-BARAKI section of the Algiers Metro Line 1 expansion project in the capital of Algeria, marking a new breakthrough in CRRC's overseas market development.

The expansion project has a total length of approximately 6.1 kilometers and will have 4 stations and sections, which will be interconnected with the existing Algiers Metro Line 1. As an important livelihood project in the capital city of Algiers, this project will greatly enhance the convenience of local transportation and provide better services for the people.

The project scope covers rail (including the third rail), electromechanical, high-voltage, communication, and decoration engineering. As the leading party of the consortium, China Signal&Communication Corporation will be responsible for the design of the project, as well as the supply and construction installation of equipment for electromechanical, high-voltage, and communication engineering. At the same time, local enterprise INFRARAIL, as a member of the consortium, will be responsible for the equipment supply and construction installation of the decoration and track (third track) engineering of the project.

This winning bid is not only the first order of China Railway Signal&Communication in the Algerian national market, but also the first order of China Railway Signal&Communication in the field of overseas urban rail transit electromechanical EPC engineering contracting. China CRRC will take this bid as an opportunity to continue to deepen its cultivation of the Algerian rail transit market, continuously improve its overseas business contracting capabilities, and strive to achieve greater breakthroughs in overseas performance. The successful bidding of this project not only demonstrates China Railway Signal&Communication's professional strength in the field of rail transit, but also lays a solid foundation for Chinese enterprises to further expand in overseas markets.(This article is from the official website of Jian Dao www.seetao.com.
