Transport Sector Policy
REPUBLIC OF RWANDA MINISTRY OF INFRASTRUCTURE TRANSPORT SECTOR POLICY December 2008 1 TRANSPORT SECTOR POLICY I. INTRODUCTION 1. The transport sector is a strategic sector for Rwanda, and the situation of being landlocked has a negative impact on economic growth and development of the country. The exceptionally high cost of transport at national as well as international levels, as well as insufficient affordable and accessible modes of transport for people in both urban and rural areas, constitute a major constraint which must be taken into account with the sector policy to achieve the short medium and long-term development goals that Rwanda has mandated. 2. The present sectoral policy defines the vision of the Government for the sector as well as its strategic orientations, which will guide its actions during the next five years. These are summarized in the Transport Sector Policy Matrix (Appendix 1). The implementation of the sector policy is ensured through medium term programmes such as the Medium Term Expenditure Framework (MTEF) for the period 2009-2012 as annexed in Appendix 2. 3. The transport sector policy is inspired by the planning tools available in Rwanda, such as the Vision 2020, the Economic Development and Poverty Reduction Strategy (EDPRS), the National Investment Strategy and the Medium Term Expenditure Framework. It takes into account other tools of reference such as the Millennium Development Objectives and the action plan of the Sub-Saharan Africa Transport Policy (SSATP). It also takes into account cross-cutting issues such as HIV/AIDS and environmental protection. I.1. Definition of the Transport Sector 4. -

MGNP General Management Plan 2014-2024 ACKNOWLEDGMENTS Uganda Wildlife Authority (UWA) prepared this General Management Plan with total funding from Uganda Wildlife Authority. Consultations were held with all relevant stakeholders both at Resource use level, Subcounty level, District level and at National Level. Furthermore an analysis of stakeholders was done which gave guidance on the consultations made. Uganda Wildlife Authority highly acknowledges the Local Communities and the entire Kisoro district leadership, who contributed to the proposals during the Planning process. Prepared by: Uganda Wildlife Authority Input from: BMCA field staff, Senior UWA staff and stakeholders Guidance from: Uganda Wildlife Authority Top Management staff Drafted by: The Planning team Edited by: Edgar Buhanga and Richard Kapere as a secretariat of the planning team i MGNP General Management Plan 2014-2024 FOREWORD Mgahinga Gorilla National Park (33.7 km2) is contiguous with Parc National des Virunga (240 km2) in the DRC, and Parc National des Volcans (160 km2) in Rwanda, all forming the proposed transbound- ary PA known as the Virunga Conservation Area covering an area of 434 km2. The park includes three of the Virunga volcanoes - Mt Muhabura (4,127 m), Mt Gahinga (3,474 m) from which the park derives its name, and Mt Sabinyo (3,645 m). This park forms part of the home of the world’s Moun- tain Gorilla population and the Golden Monkey species. This document presents a ten-year management plan for Mgahinga Gorilla National Park (MGNP). Uganda Wildlife Authority (UWA) is committed to the continued sustainable management of the Park ecosystem. This can only be achieved through proper long term planning which government has already identified and provided for in the Uganda Wildlife Act (Cap 200). -

REPUBLIC OF RWANDA RWANDA TRANSPORT DEVELOPMENT AGENCY (RTDA) FEEDER ROADS DEVELOPMENT PROJECT (FRDP) UPDATED ENVIRONMENTAL AND SOCIAL IMPACT ASSESSMENT (ESIA) FOR REHABILITATION, UPGRADING AND MULTI-YEAR MAINTENANCE WORKS OF INDICATIVE FEEDER ROADS NYAGATARE DISTRICT, 55KM (2 LOTS) NYAGATARE May 2020 RTDA/ Rwanda Feeder Roads Development Project –Project ID: P 126498, P158092 Environmental and Social Impact Assessment (ESIA) for selected feeder roads in Nyagatare district EXECUTIVE SUMMARY A significant proportion of Rwanda rural population whose livelihoods depend on agriculture lacks access to rural transport facilities, including feeder roads that strongly hampers the agricultural development and prevent them to increasing access to markets, enhancing their competitiveness and improve their incomes and livelihoods. The Government of Rwanda and Development Partners are intensifying their support not only to agriculture but also to feeder roads infrastructure development to reduce post- harvest loss and the high transport price in the project areas. In this regards, the Government of Rwanda launched the Rwanda Feeder Roads Development Project (FRDP) to develop agricultural marketing roads. This project got funds from IDA to rehabilitate, upgrade and maintain 500 km of indicative feeder roads in Rwamagana, Gisagara, Karongi and Nyamasheke Districts. The Government of Rwanda also applied for additional funding for the rehabilitation of 1,200 km of feeder roads in other six districts, namely Gatsibo, Nyagatare, Gakenke, Nyaruguru, Rutsiro and Nyabihu Districts. To overcome the above and achieve the Sustainable Development Goals Specifically Goal 9 which is about “to build resilient infrastructure, promote inclusive and sustainable industrialization and foster innovation”, Rwanda Vision 2020, the Government of Rwanda launched the Rwanda Feeder Roads Development Project (FRDP) to develop agricultural marketing roads and reduce transport cost in the areas. -

This project received financing from IDA to rehabilitate, upgrade and maintain 500 km of indicative feeder roads in Rwamagana, Gisagara, Karongi and Nyamasheke Districts. The GoR also applied for additional funding for the rehabilitation of 1200 km of feeder roads in other sixdistricts, namely Gatsibo, Nyagatare, Nyaruguru, Gakenke, Rutsiro and Nyabihu Districts. The MINAGRI through FRDP prepared the feasibility report for 184.12 km of 14 indicative feeder roads in the district of Nyagatare. The major activities associated with the indicative feeder roadsinclude rehabilitation/upgrading of carriageway pavement with a standardized width, bridges and drainage work as well as maintenance of rehabilitated infrastructures. The requirements of construction material have been identified along with the quarry and borrow area sites. The rehabilitation of the feeder roads requires the preparation of the Resettlement Action Plan (RAP) to ensure that the planned activities are socially implemented in full compliance with Rwanda’s and the World Bank’s social policies and regulations.
