Road Maintenance and Upgrading (Sector) Project (Supplementary Loans)

closed

The supplementary financing is in line with the impact and outcome of the previous loan as approved by ADB. It aims at scaling up the impact of the Project on PNG economic development and social integration by financing more road sections to improve road access to the private sector and communities, reduce their travel cost and time to major commercial and service centers, and enable them to tap economic and social opportunities in the Highlands region. It will support the Government's efforts to enhance export-led economic growth, generate income for local communities, and reduce poverty. The outcome will be increased economic activities and social improvement in the region.
