Authorities across several Moroccan provinces and prefectures are gearing up for a large-scale campaign to reclaim public spaces in streets, alleys, and neighborhoods across multiple cities and municipalities.
According to well-informed Hespress AR sources, regional governors have issued strict directives to local authorities, instructing them to take firm action against the illegal occupation of public spaces. The crackdown is expected to intensify immediately after the Eid holiday, following a period of tolerance during Ramadan.
Reports submitted to provincial authorities indicate a growing trend of public space encroachment, prompting governors to instruct district leaders and local officials to put an end to the issue.
Images circulating on social media have highlighted the widespread occupation of sidewalks and streets by cafés, restaurants, and commercial establishments, sparking public outrage over the perceived leniency of some local officials.
Authorities have vowed to remove all unauthorized structures occupying sidewalks and roads, without exception. In cases where business owners refuse to comply with verbal warnings, district leaders are prepared to use bulldozers and other available means to enforce the clearance operation.
Citizens have urged the Ministry of the Interior and local authorities to ensure that these efforts do not become seasonal showcases but instead lead to a permanent restoration of public spaces. Many have specifically called for action in major streets and areas near schools, where students are often forced to walk on roadways due to occupied sidewalks, putting them at risk.
