The Guinean government is presenting a $693 million Heavy Rail Transit (HRT) project linking Kaloum to Kagbélen over 35 kilometres, with 15 stations. The urban rail transport system is expected to carry between 184,000 and 289,000 passengers a day, with an estimated journey time of between 50 and 70 minutes, according to Mosaiqueguinee.
Guinea is also presenting the South Coastal Road, a $2.6 billion road project covering 43 kilometres between Coléah and Coyah. The toll expressway is to have two lanes in each direction, a sea bridge, embankment sections, interchanges and drainage and tolling facilities, according to Mosaiqueguinee.
These projects are being presented as part of the Deal Room of the Simandou Mining Summit 2026 to mobilise private investment and international financing, with the Simandou Mining Summit opening on 11 November. The presentation also comes after the announcement that the Conakry BRT, the other urban transport project presented to investors, will cost $361 million.
