Local authorities in the city of El Jadida launched a large-scale field campaign early on Friday, May 8, 2026, targeting several areas known for the significant presence of street vendors, particularly along Zerktouni Street and around Allal Al Kassimi Market, as part of efforts to organize public spaces and combat the illegal occupation of public property.
The operation, supervised by the head of the second administrative district, involved auxiliary forces and local authority agents, resulting in the seizure of handcarts and equipment used by vendors to display goods in roads and pedestrian passages.
According to available information, the intervention aims to improve traffic flow and organize public areas experiencing daily congestion, especially commercial streets and market zones.
The campaign is part of an ongoing program carried out by local authorities in El Jadida to reorganize main streets and markets and reduce irregular use of public spaces within the city.
