CAIRO – 7 May 2026: The Ministry of Transport, represented by the National Authority for Tunnels, continues to offer free services to passengers for the second consecutive day on the first phase of the East Nile Monorail project.
The free trial run extends from Al-Moshir Tantawy Station to Al-Adala Station in the New Capital, attracting a significant number of citizens eager to experience Egypt's newest mode of transportation.
