The Liwa-Rig Rig Road Project in Chad is a pivotal infrastructure initiative aimed at enhancing regional connectivity by completing a segment of the Trans-Saharan Road (TSR) corridor. This project focuses on constructing a 55-kilometer paved road between the towns of Liwa and Rig Rig, with an additional 12 kilometers of access roads to improve connectivity to the town of Bol and the broader Trans-Saharan network.
Scope:
- Paving 55 km between Liwa and Rig Rig
- Laying durable asphalt suited for climate and traffic loads
- Constructing 12 km of access roads linking Bol to TSR corridor
- Installing culverts and drainage channels for water management
- Building structures to ensure uninterrupted connectivity
- Shaping roadbed for alignment and safety
- Using compaction and stabilizing agents for durability
- Installing road signs, lane markings, and barriers
- Developing pull-off zones for inspections and driver comfort
- Dust control, waste management, and impact mitigation
