The World Cup to be held in 2030 in Morocco, Spain and Portugal is a very important event, Above all due to the upgrade of equipment and infrastructure that will occur in the three organized countries.
Engineering plays a fundamental role in this process, and Morocco wants to be at the level of the mission of this global event and benefit from its role as a co -organizer to enhance its development.
For this reason, Muhammadiyah Engineering College held a conference attended by representatives of the National Railways Office (ONCF), which is responsible for updating the railway transport infrastructure; The National Association for Building and Management of Sports Facilities (Sonarges), Who oversees the management of stadiums and sports facilities in Morocco, as well as other organizations.
To The articles of Haji, the General Coordinator of the Moroccan Royal Football Association, represents President Fawzi Likia, “It is not just the issue of hosting football matches, but rather to rethink about the way we organize, build and manage our infrastructure.”
Reforms in sports facilities
The regeneration of the stadiums is the main focus of the various projects that will be implemented. It is not just a matter of re -view, Sonarges plans to completely redes this infrastructure to raise it to international standards.
In total, Ten stadiums will be renewed completely, with construction stages extending from 2025 to 2030. Thus, Stade De Tanger, which will be an important place for the World Cup, will increase its ability from 65,000 to 75600 spectators. On the other hand, the Fez SPORTS complex will add 20,700 seats to 35,000 seats.
All this will be achieved by removing athletics paths, expanding the stands and integrating the sky boxes and VIP regions. “The challenge is not only expanding them, but to make these stadiums be vibrant and be able to welcome viewers outside the matches and generate their own activity,” explained, one of the architects working in the project.
The spectator experience will also be redesigned, with the addition of general Wi-Fi equipment, IPTV Networks, high -resolution sound system and giant LED screens to immerse the spectators in the experiment.
With regard to safety, the smart control system will be implemented, based on a network of safety cameras with a central registration server, which will allow the management of the optimal flow and response in the event of the accident.
Transport logistics services
The railway part of transportation and logistical services will also be subject to adjustments as part of the update project. This is because ONCF, the main partner in this event, is implementing a plan to expand and update the rail network. This will ensure smooth and effective movement in host cities.
According to the data made Badreddine Charfi, ONCF representative, the office extends to extend the high -speed railway between Kennetra and Marrakash, which will connect the north and south of Morocco in record time.
He added that too The update of the current stations and the enhancement of its links with urban transport will be a major factor for the success of the 2030 World Cup.
Moreover, The multimedia transportation centers of Tanguers, mayzing and Marrakech, trains, regional railways, tram and electric buses are planned, with a vision of sustainability and ease of access.
The environment as a major factor
Architecture and engineering are not the only priorities for projects, but also technology and the environment. Thus, solutions such as solar panels, rain water and irrigation soldiers are combined, as well as smart lights to improve energy management, in projects.
On the same way, Imane Bensayeh explained that she designed a low -carbon infrastructure that improves energy consumption and reduces waste emissions. Grand Stade Hassan II will receive a LeED Gold certificate. This seal places the country in the dynamics of the most advanced stadiums.
With regard to transformations, Mohamed Rhaachi, Vice President of Mohamed Against and Director of Representation at the College of Computer Science and National Systems (ENSIAS), stressed a “successful” digital transition to support this growth.
For his part, Dr. Muhammadi Hassan stated this “We are preparing a generation capable of facing technological and environmental challenges.” In this regard, engineering schools already adapt their training, especially in civil engineering, artificial intelligence and sustainable urban planning.
