Red Sea Investment Plan: New Pitches in Safaga and Marsa Alam, Relief Centre Work in Four Towns

The Red Sea governorate's current investment plan includes a run of youth, sports and social-service buildings under construction or being upgraded across Hurghada, Safaga, El Quseir, Marsa Alam, Shalatin and Ras Ghareb. Youm7 set the works out town by town in two listings published on 17 October.

Both listings describe works in progress rather than finished facilities, and neither gives costs or completion dates.

Sports grounds and youth clubs

• Hurghada — completing the perimeter wall at El Arban Club, and fitting out the Youth and Sports Directorate building.
• Safaga — a new acrylic court at El Salam Club.
• El Quseir — completing the wall at El Quseir Club, upgrading the El Nashaa and Workers' Youth Club, and building a wall at the Hamrawein youth centre.
• Marsa Alam — a wall, a services and activities building and a five-a-side pitch at Sheikh El-Shazly, plus a services and activities building at Marsa Alam Club.

Social services and relief centres

• Safaga — a new social unit in the Badr subdivision.
