Hi! I've been offered in internship this summer in Mohammedia but am interested in living in Casablanca and commuting from there, since the internship will likely only be a few days a week at most. Is anyone familiar with the transport system who could give me a rough idea of how to plan that commute? The costs, would it be by bus or train?

I'd really appreciate it! Thanks.

It would be the train ...there's a train every 30 minutes linking Casablanca and Mohammedia !...it's probably 15dhs(1.5 Euros) per trip [not sure] , but you can buy a card instead , it's cheaper with the card if you know you're going to be making this trip very often.

you can't buy a card unless you have a residence permit.
i've been living in mohamedia and commuting to casablanca on the train for the last year.
pretty reliable. runs until 10ish in the evening. check out oncf website.
