About the Addis Ababa Riverside Green Development Project

The Addis Ababa Riverside Green Development Project, otherwise known as the “Sheger Beautifying Project”, is a project sponsored by the Ethiopian government and backed by the Chinese counterpart. The project aims to clean rivers and create public works in Addis Ababa, the capital city of the East African country. It was launched in February last year by Prime Minister Abiy Ahmed, and it is expected to be implemented within a span of three years.

The first phase of the project is under construction on a 27ha piece of land across from the Sheraton Hotel and it is nearing completion. It incorporates the construction of a “Friendship Square,” the “Central Axis of Etiquette,” a waterfall belt on Banteyiketu River, a central rally plaza, a lakeside fountain, a music square, five amphitheaters, and an artificial pond. It is being executed by First Highway Engineering Company, a subsidiary of the state-owned China Construction Company (CCCC).
