STORY HIGHLIGHTS
Long impassable for vehicles, the Kindzoumba-Kibamba road in Bouenza Department, the countrys
breadbasket, is now open to traffic thanks to the construction of a new bridge.
The bridge was rebuilt as part of the Agricultural Development and Rural Roads Rehabilitation
Project (ADRRP), mounted by the Congolese Government with World Bank assistance.
Its completion provides new access to the surrounding villages and a means to channel agricultural
production toward the urban center of Mouyondzi and the Congo-Ocean railway.
" This project is really about overall rural development because the roads you
build arent just for for agricultural purposesthey can also be used to
evacuate the sick, to go to school, or even to facilitate trade between cities"
