| The line «1» of Casablanca tramway will offer Morocco’s biggest urban area its first quality service of public transport - but it will also be, in reference to Bordeaux, twinned with Casablanca, a strong contribution to the urban quality of the city : its insertion includes the implementation of full palm trees alignments, continuing the system of boulevards which makes the image of the city. The tramway will circulate on a «burnt Sienna» ground - the colour of the city and its beach-, and, of course, the magnificent Art Deco district, worthy of the classification of World Heritage Site, will be retrofitted and particular attention will be brought to pedestrian comfort. | |||
