Description
Description | The proposed project aims to improve existing roads and strengthen institutions in the transport sector. It includes: rehabilitation of two paved road sections; regravelling of 360 km of gravel roads, upgrading of 42 km of earth roads to gravel standard, and improvement of drainage of 123 km of gravel roads. In addition, the project provides for traffic counters and weighbridges; and technical assistance and training. Road rehabilitation and improvement would lower transport costs, protect past investments and increase accessibility of rural areas. Technical assistance and training would improve the operational capability of the Roads Branch and the Plant and Vehicle Pool Services. In addition, assistance for the Labor-intensive Construction Unit would enhance the Government's efforts to increase domestic employment opportunities. |
