| description |
This project, with a total cost of US$
92.74 million (IDA, the government of Sierra Leone and five
other donors) was declared effective in 1993 and closed in
2001, with country operations being suspended in 1998 and
1999 due to the security situation. The main objectives
were: (i) to remove physical bottlenecks in the
country's transport network through a sustainable road
rehabilitation program; (ii) to build institutional capacity
to better plan and manage the repair and maintenance of
roads and promote a sustainable system for funding and road
maintenance; (iii) to strengthen transport sector
institutions and to foster market-oriented policies; (iv) to
encourage new methods of infrastructure rehabilitation and
maintenance, using labor-intensive technology and local
resources, in order to increase employment generation and to
provide sustainable maintenance systems; (v) to increase the
share of private sector participation in road maintenance
and develop the capacity of small contractors to maintain
the road network; and (vi) to promote the use of
non-motorized transport to reduce head-loading by women and
to increase rural mobility, improving transport services
available for the rural poor. |
