Le projet

His Majesty King Hamad bin Issa Al Khalifa Bahrain has expressed his willingness to collaborate with France on a strategy to embody its 2030 economic development plan.

It was therefore decided to set up a group of experts known as BFTPI (Bahrain French Town Planning Initiative) to provide the necessary technical assistance to the kingdom and its government departments. Expertise France, a French development and international cooperation agency, has been mandated by the French Ministry of Ecology and Sustainable Development to lead the BFTPI initiative. A consortium of three French engineering firms has taken up the challenge: Arep, Egis and Setec.

Nos missions

BFTPI’s proposal is based on an integrated, collaborative approach aimed at creating value, by integrating existing processes and players. 3 phases structure this study:

  • GDUP reorganization and support (1st stage)
  • implementation of a coordinated strategy followed by action on land use (2nd stage)
  • implementation of concepts and support for projects: realization of the waterfront masterplan (3rd stage)

Setec is responsible for implementing a voluntary, coordinated regional planning strategy, with Setec Organisation acting as agent.

Two aspects of this strategy were entrusted to Setec International:

  • Mobility and transport,
  • Biodiversity and the environment.
