C\u00f4te d’Ivoire has launched a major project to renovate more than 27,000 km of dirt roads, both in Abidjan and in the interior of the country, between 2023 and 2025. This project is led by the Road Management Agency (AGEROUTE) and is part of the National Development Plan (PND) 2021-2025. The objective is to strengthen road infrastructure to create a more integrated and interconnected national network, linking urban, rural and regional areas.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
According to Kouakou N’Guessan No\u00ebl, Head of the Network Planning and Monitoring Department at AGEROUTE, this program aims not only to modernize infrastructure, but also to promote local cultural wealth and support the initiatives of local authorities, particularly in the field of tourism. By facilitating access to inland regions and their connection to major cities, these renovations should improve mobility and promote the transport of local production to national markets.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Over the past ten years, investment in Ivorian road infrastructure has increased significantly. Since 2011, approximately 260 km of highways have been built, 1,500 km of new interurban roads have been developed, and 2,000 km of existing roads have been reinforced. This brings the country’s paved road network to over 8,100 km, including 400 km of highways, a remarkable development compared to 25,000 km in 1960. Currently, the overall road network stands at approximately 82,000 km.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
With these 27,000 km of road renovation works, C\u00f4te d’Ivoire is not only seeking to modernize its infrastructure, but also to stimulate economic and social development by facilitating trade and supporting the growth of rural and urban areas. This ambitious program, part of the National Development Plan, will strengthen the country’s competitiveness and promote the mobility of its citizens.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
