East African Community Secretariat THE EAST AFRICAN TRADE AND TRANSPORT FACILITATION PROJECT EAST AFRICAN TRANSPORT STRATEGY AND REGIONAL ROAD SECTOR DEVELOPMENT PROGRAM FINAL REPORT PART II: EAC REGIONAL TRANSPORT STRATEGY MARCH 2011 Prepared By: Africon Ltd EAC Transport Strategy and Regional Roads Sector Development Program STRUCTURE OF DOCUMENT This report is made up of four parts: Part I provides the general background to the study. It reports on the analyses that are common to and form the foundation of the Transport Strategy and Roads Development Program, including the regional corridors, the economy and demography of the region, transport demand and transport modelling, and the principles for project identification and prioritisation. Part II (this document) is the Transport Strategy. It covers the policy/institutional arrangements in the transport sector in the EAC and its member countries. It then provides an overview of regional issues and identifies regional interventions in each of the transport modes, i.e. roads, rail, ports, pipelines, airports and border posts. It concludes by presenting the prioritised interventions together with an implementation approach. Part III is the Roads Development Program. It covers the regional roads network, and analyses roads needs from capacity and condition perspectives. It also develops some cross-cutting themes (regional roads classification system, regional roads management system and regional overload control). Regional roads projects are identified and described. Part IV is the list of transport projects, together with short profiles for the priority projects. Parts II and III are drafted so that they can be read stand-alone, i.e. in isolation of the other three parts.
