| 摘要： | Tanzania has recently kick-started the process leading to the construction of a key stretch of road and a bridge. The work is of major significance for East Africa as this stretch provides a missing link in the 225.3km multinational Arusha-Holili/Taveta-Voi road that links Northern Tanzania to the Kenyan port city of Mombasa. This is an important project as it will connect the 1,800km Northern Corridor to the 3,100km Central Corridor that originates at Tanzania's capital and port city, Dar es Salaam. Tanzania National Roads Agency (Tanroads) and Japan International Cooperation Agency (MCA) signed a US$168.6 million (JPY24,301 million) contract in February 2022 to finance the Arusha-Holili Road Improvement Project. This is the second phase of the Arusha-Holili/Taveta-Voi road and is slated for completion in 2027. This missing link is expected to "...increase the volume and loading capacity of the road, improve traffic safety and lower vehicle operating costs for the Tengeru-Usa River, the New Kikafu Bridge, and the Moshi Town Sections," according to a JICA project brief. Works on this phase includes dualling the route from Tengeru to Usa River (10.1km), building part of the Moshi urban roads (8.4km), construction of the new Kikafu bridge, (560m long) and building the 4km of approach roads, according to Tanroads. |
