Description

The project will help achieve a better balance between road transport and coastal shipping, overcome the isolation of outlying areas and foster regional economic activity. The project includes: (i) Road and Bridge Component: reconstruction or upgrading of five road sections in the Northern Plain totalling about 54 km and of about 13 km in the Southwest; construction of new bridges to replace the Hyppolite and Trois Rivieres bridges, and preinvestment studies of high priority projects in the transport sector. (ii) Coastal Shipping Ports Component: construction of coastal shipping port facilities at Port-au-Prince, Jeremie and Port-de-Paix. The project would also include 485 man/months of technical assistance for design work, supervision of construction, management advisory services and studies. The project would benefit about 900,000 persons, mostly low-income rural inhabitants.
