Tanganyika - Highway Project

The Highway Project for Tanganyika will assist in the cost of improving the roads to standards, suitable for growing traffic. The project consists of the design, improvement, construction, and reconstruction of eight roads totaling 734 miles in length. Six of the roads in the project already exist as part of the main road system while the remaining two are existing district roads, which will eventually be incorporated into the main system. It will provide safe and quicker transport of passengers; a stimulus to the development of transport and ancillary industries; and administrative, social, and commercial advantages will result from quicker and assured transport connections. Economic benefits will increase with the growth of traffic thereafter.
