  • 2.3 Benin Road Network
    2.3 Benin Road Network Distance Matrix Road Security Weighbridges and Axle Load Limits Road transport is the main mode of transport in Benin, and Benin’s geographical position makes it a main corridor to other West African countries (including Niger and Burkina Faso). The Ministry of Transport indicated that the national road network included about 16,000 km in the country. The transport department indicated that over the last 15 years there had been approximately a 10-11% increase per year of traffic on asphalted roads and about 6-7% on non-asphalted roads. Approximately 11% of the primary roads in Benin are asphalted or paved. The paved stretch can be mostly found in the southern region (Zou, Littoral and Plateau) and the principal towns. On the primary roads, the toll gates fees are applied and vary progressively from 150 XOF to 500 XOF. Secondary roads make up around 33% and consist of lateral and gravel roads. There are different construction projects that the government intends to launch with the support of development partners. The road projects contain a portfolio of 29 priorities for rehabilitation, modernisation and extensions of the road network in the period 2016-2021, and the constructions of Hilaconji / Sanvéecondji Juxtaposed Control Stations for the period of 2016-2018 (Source: Ministry of Public Works and Transport website). During the rainy season from mid-September to mid-November, muddy roads often become impassable. Transporters are forced to deploy accommodated lighter trucks with 4-wheel drive. Full spare tires and other useful safety equipments are required. Most of the rural roads require other types of lighter vehicles (moto tricycles and 2-wheels are often used).
