Feeding the High-Speed Line: The TS3 Traction Substation Works

The infrastructure that will feed traction substation TS3 on Egypt's high-speed electric railway is being built as two circuits, one of eighteen stages and one of six. Engineer Mustafa Abdel Hasib described a job moving at record pace, and why the crews behind it matter as much as the clock.

The project supplies traction substation TS3, one of the substations that will power Egypt's high-speed electric railway. It is being built as two circuits, the first of eighteen stages and the second of six. Five stages of the first circuit are complete, and half of the second, in under two months.

Engineer Mustafa Abdel Hasib singled out two things. The first was time, held despite the scale and the cost of the work, with nothing left waiting.

They did not fall behind on anything, not the pipes, not the equipment, not the manpower. And they kept their technical cadres, strong teams who are with us whenever we need them, at any hour of the day.

The second was people. He noted that AlGammal held on to its skilled technical teams, who work alongside the client without hesitation and stay available around the clock. As an Egyptian, he said, he takes pride in seeing a leading national company work this way, and hopes to see it do so across every field.

Two circuits, weeks on the clock, and the same teams from start to finish. On the high-speed line, that combination is the work.
