The Cairo Metro Line 4 Phase 1 Project involves the construction of a subway spanning approximately 19 km from 6th of October City to Fustat City, passing through the Giza Pyramid area, Giza district, and the downstream area of the Nile River. There are also plans to extend it to the New Administration Capital. Upon the completion and opening of Cairo Metro Line 4, it is anticipated that traffic congestion and air pollution in the Giza tourist area will be alleviated. Additionally, it will enable a quick 20-minute commute from central Cairo to the Grand Egyptian Museum, where the trial opening of the permanent gallery commenced in October 2014, and to the Giza Pyramids.

OC Global is contributing to the establishment of secure, safe, and efficient infrastructure, while also making a positive impact on the reduction of CO2 emissions in the respective country through railway development.
