Project Status:
In 2010 Lengiprotrans began developing a project for a new railway line Sirte - Benghazi in the Great Socialist People's Libyan Arab Jamahiriya. The highway runs along the Mediterranean coast.
The road was intended for the transportation of oil products and the creation of transport links between the two port cities. Prior to that, the country had a poorly developed railway connection.
All design work was done on site. The work was complicated by the presence of sand dunes.
56 artificial structures have been designed on the line, of which about 30 have been built.
The project was suspended due to the outbreak of hostilities in Libya.
