ROADS SECTOR II

closed

The main objective of the Second Road Sector Project is to continue to support the Government's careful financial management through increasingly efficient execution of its road investment and maintenance program. The second objective is the establishment of an effectively functioning road maintenance and pavement management organization. This project would help the government by: 1) strengthening the capability of MOP's Road Directorate through a more focused training program, 2) reaching normal maintenance levels through a distribution of funds balanced between road investment and maintenance, 3) reestablishing a functional local road maintenance system, 4) improving Vialidad's competence in the economic evaluation of road construction, 5) resolving major traffic congestion problems, 6) rehabilitating road bridges and 6) assisting the Government in external resource mobilization for guaranteed project implementation.
