Major Renovation of Marché Central in Fes Kicks Off
The rehabilitation project for the 'Marché Central' located on Mohammed V Street in Fes has officially entered the implementation phase. This development comes after the relevant authorities, in collaboration with the Fes Regional Development Company, arranged for the gradual evacuation of this vital facility. This preparatory step is essential for commencing demolition and reconstruction work within the context of a significant urban project estimated to cost around 90 million dirhams.
In a bid to ensure uninterrupted commercial activities during the renovation, temporary spaces in the form of organized stalls have been created for traders. These spaces facilitate a smooth transition for vendors, allowing them to continue their operations under suitable conditions while minimizing the potential economic impacts of the construction work on the surrounding area.
Modern Facilities and Enhanced Accessibility
This ambitious project aims to significantly enhance the attractiveness of the site and improve working conditions for professionals. The new design will feature a modern architectural style spread over several levels, including a ground floor, an upper floor, and two underground levels dedicated to parking with substantial capacity. This initiative seeks to address the persistent traffic congestion problems that plague the market's vicinity.
Moreover, the project will integrate modern facilities that enhance accessibility for all visitors, including elevators and organized walkways. Special attention will be given to individuals with disabilities, ensuring that the market is inclusive. The architectural approach will blend Fes’ traditional character with contemporary construction requirements, utilizing materials reflective of the local identity alongside energy-efficient technical solutions.
The newly revamped market will offer diverse spaces that extend beyond food products to include cafes, restaurants, and administrative services. This transformation is set to elevate the market's status as an organized commercial hub that meets the expectations of both professionals and consumers, enhancing service quality in line with the urban changes occurring in the city.
