Rail Projects in Africa

When infrastructure is absent or degraded, it no longer fulfils its connective functions, and the economy suffers. As essential transactions and movements are delayed or disrupted, transport costs rise, individuals lose time in unremunerated commuting, and firms must fight harder to compete. To restore the connections, new infrastructure must sometimes be built, or—more frequently—old infrastructure restored or improved.

Transport infrastructure is not cheap. The huge investments required to build highways, railways, and ports must be well planned. If regularly maintained, transport infrastructure can be long-lived. But without maintenance, these valuable assets can disappear in a matter of a few years. Too often, the same roads end up being rebuilt over and over again, at a cost several times higher than if the appropriate maintenance measures had been taken on time
