Canada’s Bombardier Inc (BBDb.TO) and Egypt’s Orascom Construction (OC.DI) (ORAS.CA) and Arab Contractors will build a $1.5 billion monorail near Cairo, Egypt’s housing minister said. The 52 kilometer (32 mile) project is set to be completed by mid-2018 with funding from a 14-year loan, Mostafa Madbouly said in a statement, without saying who was providing the funds.
