USAID/East Africa’s Central African Republic (CAR) Rural Roads Rehabilitation and Maintenance Program was established on June 26, 2009, and is scheduled to end on December 30, 2010. USAID’s implementing partner is ACTED, a French NGO, with an award amount of $2,475,000.
The project will rehabilitate approximately 137 kilometers of rural road between Bozoum and Bossangoa, two strategic provincial centers in the northwest of the country. In the process, the project will improve market access and infrastructure, employ community members through labor intensive public works, mitigate environmental impacts, and train communities in applied micro-enterprise development.
In the first 3 months since grant execution, the scheduled focus has been on conducting requisite, preliminary environmental assessment work and design work.
