Annual Report 2019 3 4 Infrastructure and Urban Development Key Messages

Commitments exceed $2 billion The Bank has increased its annual financial contribution to Infrastructure and Urban Develop- ment, committing USD 2.2 billion to 21 projects in 2019, compared to USD 1.9 billion to 19 projects in 2018 and USD 1.5 billion to 16 projects in 2017.

Strong emphasis on Africa’s roads In 2019 the Bank has supported and accompanied RMC in 17 road projects, in many cases from inception and through preparation to bankability point. The Bank has financed close to $2bn of road projects alone. Indeed, the road sub-sector accounts for a massive 86% of total financing in Transport and Urban Development this year. Efficient transport networks The 2019 portfolio of project financing alsoincludes 2 airport and 1 port projects, demonstrating the will of Africa’s regions to place emphasis on efficient transport networks for the movement of people and goods. In Tanzania for example, the financing of both the airport and the ring road in Dodoma are part of a holistic national strategy to stimulate development in the administrative capital. Trade facilitation and job creation 2019 projects support national and regional strategies to stimulate the economy and lift fragile communities out of their isolation. Each of the 17 road sector projects in 2019 will generate an average 2500 jobs during construction works, and thousands more indirect jobs created as economic activity grows thanks to the improved road network. 1200 direct jobs and 3000 indirect jobs will be created as a result of airport renovation, a further 665 direct jobs from port construction. 7.3 million urban inhabitants of Banjul, Dodoma, Kampala and will all directly benefit from enhanced trade and job opportunities from projects funded in 2019.

Annual Report 2019 9 Road Corridors for Mobility and Opportunities 650 km of multinational roads approved in 2019

Road corridor constructions in Africa reduce transport and logistic costs and promote cross-border trade and regional integration.

Road corridor sections approved by the Bank in 2019 Nigeria: Construction of 178km of road which will serve as an international link between Ebonyi State and the Republic of Cameroon. The road links to the Enugu – Bamenda Road Corridor which was supported by the Bank and completed in 2013, thereby facilitating interstate mobility in Nigeria.

Ghana: 69km of road heading North from Ghana’s ports to the region’s landlocked countries on the Eastern Corridor route. Ghana has the ambition to become the Transportation and Logistic Hub of West Africa – 15,452 km of trunk roads run through the country connecting the region. The Bank’s interventions include funding for Inter-Agency Coordination and Corridor Coordination with and Mali.

Gabon: 49km of road on the Trans-Gabonese corridor towards the South, providing a gateway to the Republic of Congo. The project complements works underway in Congo between Dolisie and Ngongo on the Gabon/Congo border, part of the ECCAS Consensual Master Plan for Transport in Central Africa.

Ethiopia-Djibouti : 60km of a new 4-lane highway, part of the Ethiopia-Djibouti Transport Corridor Project. Imports and exports to Ethiopia represent around 80% of the activities of the ports of Djibouti. The Bank is an active partner in the Ethiopian transport sector and a co-financer in the development of the Ports of Djibouti.

10 Infrastructure and Urban Development 1300 Youths will receive training in road construction

Road corridors invariably create employment opportunities. A large number of direct and indirect temporary jobs are created during the construction phase of the project. On completion of the project, job opportunities are generated in the project vicinity, and within the new transportation ecosystem created as a result of the project.

Kenya: Construction of 84km of road on the Trans-Africa Highway No. 4 (TAH-4) towards the border with Ethiopia. The Bank has already financed a significant part of the TAH-4 in the region : 800 km in Kenya, 300 km in Tanzania and 700 km in Ethiopia.

Tanzania and Kenya: 175km of road which runs along the Indian Ocean coast and bridges the link between the Northern and Central corridors which serve the ports of Mombasa and Dar es Salaam, respectively. The road is a priority project under PIDA and prioritized in the Bank’s Eastern Africa Regional Integration Strategy.

Mozambique: 35km in the North of Mozambique complements the already constructed Unity Bridge on the border with Tanzania towards the ports of Pemba in Mozambique and on the Mtwara Development Corridor. 500 construction job opportunities will be created, with a target of 15% of these to be taken up by women. The road will create 50 permanent jobs, of which 10 reserved for youth.

Malawi: 55 km of road in Phase V of financing of the Nacala Corridor complements previous projects which have enabled over 1000km of road along the strategic corridor since 2009, in , Malawi, and Mozambique. The current project will create 400 jobs.

Annual Report 2019 11 2019 Project Design Highlights

Transportation and urban development projects should be properly structured technically, ecenomically, legally and commercially to ensure sustainability. As part of the Bank's drive for sustainable and inclusive development, the projects presented to the Board combine due dilligence with best practices and expertise in new environmental trends. In 2019, the Bank pursued its efforts in mobilizing resources on behalf of its regional member countries and applying innovative responses adapted to the context of each project. The highlights of this year's project design reflect the focus on partnerships as well as cutting-edge solutions for sustainable development with green growth.

Emphasis on Partnerships PAGoDA, the EU Africa Investment Platform

In November 2019, The Bank and the 2019 Project Amount shook hands on a renewed commitment to unlock MUSD hundreds of millions in financing for African infrastructure Nacala Phase V and development needs. Collaboration between the two 47.2 institutions also puts strong focus on de-risking projects Somalia Road Infrastructure 42.2 in Africa, providing equity, guarantees and other types of Programme non-grant support. Senegambia Bridge 17.5 On behalf of recipient countries, the Bank acts as an Lake Tanganyika 21.7 administrator of projects financed by the European Union Bagamoyo Lunga Malindi under PAGoDA, an agreement concluded within the 33.1 framework of the Africa Investment Platform (AIP) under the TOTAL EU contribution 161.9 11th European Development Fund.

The successful conclusion of 5 infrastructure projects in 2019 showcases the Bank’s role in leveraging partner institutions to achieve greater development impact.

The Nacala Road Corridor - Support for the Mozambican Government In consultation with the Mozambican government, the Bank applied for an EU grant to supplement resources for two distinct phases of financing of the Nacala Road Corridor Development. The Bank and the EC signed a delegation agreement to define the activities entrusted to the Bank and lay down the rules governing the transfer of the EU’s contribution. The Bank finalized 2 separate financing agreements from the EU-AIP in June and November 2019, totalling USD47.2M to be disbursed under a grant agreement with the Government of Mozambique. The Senegambia Bridge - Continued Support for Transnational Traffic Funding has been allocated to improve the sustainability of the Bank’s achievements in financing the Senegambia bridge, commissioned in 2018. The PAGODA grant to the Senegambia bridge improvement project is a financing of EUR 16million awarded in 2019 that is exclusively intended for the strengthening of the 24 km of connecting roads between Farafenni and Senoba.

The Bank administers the AIP grant for the works, applying its own accounting, internal control and audit procedures, which have been positively assessed by the EC. The Bank will also apply its procurement policy and procedures. The grant mobilized from the EC by the Bank will make it possible to upgrade the approach road to prevent deterioration due to the increase in road traffic induced by the bridge.

12 Infrastructure and Urban Development Focus on Integrated Urban Planning, Climate Change and Green Growth

Every financing proposal submitted to the Board contains mitigation measures to reduce environmental impacts. Examples of affirmative actions for the environment in 2019 include:

Greenhouse Gas Reduction

As part of the multinational Kenya-Tanzania road project, the planting of trees along the project roads and within the degraded areas inside Saadani National Park (Tanzania) and forest mangroves (Kenya) is planned to support ecological resilience and carbon sequestration. In total, 200 ha of trees will be planted and will result in more than 60,000T of CO2 sequestered over a 40-year period. Secondly, provision of non-motorized transport facilities and smart energy efficient street lightings in urban sections will contribute to long-term GHG emissions reduction goals. Urban Green Growth

The Bank and UNIDO will collaboratively support the City of Dodoma towards Climate Change resilience through studies for a rapid bus transit and other energy efficient urban infrastructure.

In Kampala, the project includes eco-buses and a green bus route aimed at de-carbonizing mobility solutions in the city. It also includes the provision of 1,600 energy efficient streetlights in the city and 123km of pedestrian sidewalks. Climate Change Resilience - Prevention of Flooding

In the Comoros Islands, climate change engenders potential risks including fiercer cyclones, rising sea-levels, sea-water encroachment and abundant rainfall. The road project will build climate resilience through the construction of coastal protection structures. Existing infrastructure will be modified to enhance climate resilience by protecting bridge structures from stripping and abrasion, raising the elevation of the road, increasing the solidity of retaining walls and strengthening bridge structures.

For the Dodoma Ringroad project in Tanzania’s administrative capital, the low-lying nature of the terrain makes climate risk such as flooding problematic on some sections of the project. The project will support the City of Dodoma to integrate biodiversity and ecosystem values in urban planning. It will also assist in the restoration of degraded urban land and sustainable land management with funding for reforestation of the Dodoma city hill ranges, drainage system improvements to control rainwater runoff and soil erosion, and tree planting on the ring road embankments. Other components include the management of Dodoma’s natural capital and development of green space recreation parks.

Annual Report 2019 13 Emphasis on Project Preparation

The New Partnership for Africa’s Development Infrastructure Project Preparation Facility (NEPAD-IPPF) Special Fund, hosted by the Bank's Infrastructure and Urban Development Department, plays a catalytic role in mobilizing resources for preparation of regional projects and programs.

14 Infrastructure and Urban Development Emphasis on Preventing Road Accidents and Fatalities in Africa

Road safety is one of the priority areas in the Bank’s Infrastructure and Urban Development Department. During 2019, the Bank's road safety interventions were both in the form of knowledge sharing to strengthen institutional capacity and at operational level, with road safety audits and sensitization for communities living near road projects.

Project Team Leader : Zerfu TESSEMA, Chief Transport Engineer

Poor infrastructure has been identified by the Governments of Tanzania and Kenya as one of the major constraints to regional integration and broader socio-economic development for both countries.

The project road is a strategic coastal trade route. It will constitute a link between the Northern and Central corridors, which serve the region’s busiest ports of Mombasa and Dar es Salaam respectively. Complementary soft components of the project, in the form of a trade and transport facilitation study, aim at optimising the benefits of regional integration afforded by the coastal road. The study will identify key constraints to trade, bottlenecks affecting transit time and overall corridor efficiency. In particular, the study will prioritise the preparation of a coordinated border management system at the Lunga Lunga/Horohoro border post.

In Kenya, 83% of the local population live and work within the traverse area and are therefore the primary stakeholders to the Road Project. In Tanzania, most of the community members in the area of influence are small-scale farmers. An estimated 3 million people in the two countries will benefit from this project, in addition to regional traders and the tourist industry.

Studies to build a One-Stop Border Post (OSBP) on the coastal road between Kenya and Tanzania are part of the 2019 multinational road project. Pictured here, the Namanga OSBP, located on the Tanzania-Kenya border along the road between Arusha and Athi River is the main inland border crossing point. Commissioned in 2017, it has significantly reduced transit time, with truck clearance now possible in 15-20 minutes in both directions.

Annual Report 2019 23 Kenol-Sagana-Marua Highway Improvement A sustained effort towards efficient and safe mobility in the Kenya Mount Kenya region. Project Team Leader : Zerfu TESSEMA, Chief Transport Engineer

Part of the Mombasa - Nairobi - Addis Ababa Highway, the existing section of the project road is a two-lane asphalt road, which is congested and unsafe. The road links the capital Nairobi to some of the commercially and agriculturally prosperous localities in the Mount Kenya region. It serves as a gateway to the landlocked countries of Uganda, Rwanda, Burundi, the Democratic and , and also serves Ethiopia via the border town of Moyale.

The Bank has already financed a significant portion of the Mombasa - Nairobi - Addis Ababa Highway. The construction work will result in a 4-lane highway, with two interchanges and numerous road safety facilities. Tree planting and complementary social activities are also an integral part of the project.

The main beneficiaries are the 2 million inhabitants of the five counties crossed, and in particular the traders and farmers of the area, who will gain better access to national, regional and international markets.

The population of the programme area in the North West of Cameroon is estimated at 1.7 million, with a growth rate of 1.9%. About 62% of the population is aged below 20 years. The region lacks transport links for the growing population to trade with neighbouring Nigeria.

The Bank is financing 280 kilometres of the 365 km road loop. Works in this phase include the MisajeDumbo border section, linking Cameroon to Nigeria. This second instalment and the AGTF loan approved in 2019 are allocated to the works of the sections of the main road and urban roads; and support for the employability of youths in the project area.

Upgrading the ring road will contribute to diversifying the economy and opening up opportunities with neighbouring Nigeria. The annual average daily traffic on the ring road sections is projected to increase by 5% per year, to reach 2000 by 2022.

Annual Report 2019 27 Tanzania: Dodoma City Outer Ring Road Inclusive and green growth in urban development plans for the city of Dodoma. Tanzania Project Team Leader : Jeremy Bassy AGUMA, Principal Transport Economist,

Dodoma is the new administrative capital of Tanzania. The city is experiencing rapid urbanization, increased motorization, and increased transit of goods, all of which are driving the need for coherent urban development

The project involves construction of a new bitumen standard dual-carriage ring road (110.2km) around Dodoma City, drainage capacity improvement, roadside stops and dedicated amenities for truck drivers and other motorists, and other social amenities that include water sources, schools and health centres. A pilot road safety improvement around Dodoma City is also one of the other project interventions. Heavy vehicles will be diverted onto the Outer Ring Road to bypass Dodoma City centre. The project is economically viable with an EIRR of 35.4%.

Reduced transit times and less traffic congestion will consequently result in a reduction in greenhouse gas emissions and improve the quality of life for the 2.4 million people living in Greater Dodoma and surrounding regions. Tanzania’s efforts to address climate change challenges go a step further. An Urban Development component of the project will contribute to improving urban planning and management. Part of the funds are reserved for greening Dodoma through tree-planting on embankments of the Ring Road, and other areas within the City.

The Dodoma Ring Road will alleviate current bottlenecks from transiting vehicles crossing the city. The road will feature road safety features such as cycle lanes and vegetal road separators, as shown in this digital image. Pedestrian crossings will be placed at the approach to roundabouts.

Annual Report 2019 29 Gabon Infrastructure Sector Support - Phase I A strong contribution to economic development and regional integration Gabon Project Team Leader : Augustin KARANGA, Chief Transport Economist

The potential of Ngounié Province as a contributor to regional economic integration is undermined by the poor state of the Doussala-Ndendé section on the Libreville - Congo Border Road. The main road concerned by this project, as well as most of the feeder roads, are not motorable, especially during the rainy season.Timber, mining, metallurgy and the agro-industry all suffer from the difficulty to-market. The precarious rural situation has led to massive population exodus to the cities and hence a decline in agricultural production. Consequently, Gabon relies massively on imports, especially from neighbouring countries Congo and Cameroon.

Phase I consists of construction work which will contribute to the connection of the capital cities of Gabon and Congo. Studies will be conducted for the control of road investment costs and the future implementation of a corridor management system. Phase I also caters for urban development, with the construction of 21 km of roads and their related facilities in Libreville. The project will address the crucial need to open up production areas, improve mobility, diversify the economy, and reduce poverty for the population living along the Doussala-Dolisie corridor.

Main beneficiaries are the +100 000 inhabitants of Ngounié Province, with the 1 million population of Libreville also benefiting from the positive impact of the road.

This photo of road construction works financed by the AfDB on the Léyou-Lastoursville road in Gabon shows attention given to road safety. The new road project will provide a southern link to the national road network and a gateway to Congo.

Ethiopia The first stretch of a new Southern trade route to the Port of Djibouti. Project Team Leader : Mumina WA-KYENDO, Chief Transport Engineer

The 900 km Addis Ababa-Djibouti corridor handles more than 90% of Ethiopia’s imports and exports via Djibouti’s ports and the Galafi border. Ethiopian trade accounts for around 80% of Djibouti port activities. The current northern corridor is long and degraded.

The project involves the construction of the first 60 km of a new 4-lane toll highway stretching 126 km from Adama to Awash on the alternative southern corridor, passing through the Dewele / Gaulile border post. This route will be 120 km shorter and reduce transportation costs and carbon emissions.

The beneficiaries of the project will be the 0.5 million people living in the project area on the Ethiopian side. Additional beneficiaries will be people working in agriculture, trade and import-export sectors, and include 3,000 truck drivers who cover the 900 km of road that connect Djibouti and Addis Ababa, as well as young people, who will benefit from more 95% of the job opportunities expected during the construction phase. Djibouti will benefit from the development of trade, port revenues, jobs as well as bankable projects, and improved capacity in the management of the transport sector.

The Adama – Awash expressway project is an extension of the existing Addis Ababa - Adama Expressway pictured here, and will have similar features.

37 DRC: National Road No.1 Rehabilitation Kinshasa/Ndjili – Batshamba Section A key road to the interior and an important facilitator of regional DR Congo integration. Project Team Leader : Anatole BIZONGO, Senior Transport Engineer

The RN1 is a major corridor for internal and inter-regional transit and trade between Central Africa, East Africa, and Southern Africa. The Kinshasa-Batshamba link, including the 72.80-km Kwango-Kenge section financed by the Bank, is currently badly degraded due to erosion which could potentially cause the road to collapse.

The project follows the existing road along the section from Moanda to Kasumbalesa. and covers land with very variable relief. The Government has devoted most funding from donors involved in the transport sector to its gradual rehabilitation. The project will serve to safeguard and ensure the sustainability of investments, for year-round connectivity. The construction of parking areas around urban centres (Bankana, Kenge, Masimanimba and Kikwit) and speed limit measures and signs will help reduce the risk of accidents. The project intends to treat embankments and cuttings along the RN1 with systematic revegetation to reduce erosion on ditches, drains and collectors.

Beneficiaries are the inhabitants of Kinshasa and of the provinces Mai Ndombe, Kwango, and Kwilu, particularly traders and farmers, for whom the road will improve food security, increase the availability of agricultural products, reduce travel time and build the capacity of support services.

The construction of a road-rail bridge between Kinshasa and Brazzaville will link two fast-growing cities across the Congo River border and take into account traffic growth prospects, the continued urbanisation of both Kinshasa and Brazzaville and the establishment of special economic zones in Maluku in the Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC) and Maloukou in the Republic of Congo (RC).

The access road links leading to the bridgeheads are 10 kilometres long, of which 6.8 kilometres on the left bank (DRC) and 3.2 kilometres on the right bank (RC) of the Congo River. The first phase of the project will cover the construction of the 6.8km access roads on the DRC side and studies on other infrastructure, including the Kinshasa bypass and on access roads on the RC side.

The project is in line with the drive to develop border trade on RDC’s four main trade corridors, in the North with Brazzaville- Douala, in the East, with Brazzaville-Kinshasa, and in the South with Cabinda-Nzassi and along the Dolisie-Doussala highway. The main project beneficiaries are finance, trade, transport, mining, electricity and agricultural sector operators. Local and foreign enterprises in both countries and private carriers will benefit from the facilities developed by the project, as will the 700 000 inhabitants of Maluku and the 30 000 persons expected to move to the Maloukou Special Economic Zone.

Malawi depends on international transport corridors leading to the seaports for its imports and exports. The Nacala Road Corridor is the shortest route to the seaport from Malawi yet due to the poor road infrastructure and lengthy clearing processes at the border crossing, only 15% of the country’s international trade transits the corridor.

Phase V of the Nacala Road Corridor Project will contribute to maximizing the economic benefits of the on-going project phases III and IV. The project involves the rehabilitation of a 55 km road between Nsipe and Liwonde and the construction of a one-stop border post between Malawi and Mozambique at the Chiponde-Mandimba border post, financed on the Mozambique side under Phase III of the project. Works in Phases I and II, financed by the Bank in 2012, have since been completed. The projects have enabled the rehabilitation to bituminous standards of over 1,165 km of road in Malawi, Mozambique and Zambia, and an ongoing construction of a OSBP between Malawi and Zambia at the Mchinji-Mwami border post.

The beneficiaries include an estimated population of over 2 million people who use the Nacala Road Corridor for personal travel and economic activities. Other beneficiaries include import and export firms in Malawi, Zambia, and northern Mozambique and tourists.

Project Team Leader : Jean Noel ILBOUDO, Division Manager

As the main migrant route to the Sahara and Europe, Niger is a key transit country for migratory flows and is also prey to illegal trafficking in contraband. The economy of Niger is largely dominated by agriculture and , but movement of goods to market is thwarted by the poor state of the road. Aware of the critical role that transport plays in the Niger economy, the Government has allocated significant resources in recent years to improve transport sector performance, despite the context of a drop in prices and heavy pressure from security and humanitarian challenges.

The project road will connect the Keita and Tahoua Divisions of Niger, a region with high agro-pastoral potential. It includes financing of a building for youth training in light industry such as masonry, stone cutting, mechanics, welding and carpentry, and market sheds for agricultural produce.

Beneficiaries are the 4m people living in the district, particularly the 400 000 in the project area, who will gain job opportunities and enhanced access to basic social services. The road will open up several localities in Tahoua region thereby contributing to revitalising the local economy, improving food security and building resilience among the youth and poor segments of the population.

Phase I of the Road Network Rehabilitation was approved in 2017, but a funding gap reduced the extent of planned construction.

Supplementary financing will allow the continuation of works started in 2018 in addition to ancillary works to protect the coast from marine intrusion and climate change-induced floods. The new road coating will withstand higher temperatures and the capacity of road drainage systems will be increased. Climate resilience of existing infrastructure will be reviewed to strengthen and protect bridge structures, to raise the elevation of the road and increase the solidity of retaining walls.

The rehabilitation and extension of the national road network will contribute to the development of the tourism and fishing sectors, identified as potential growth poles for the national economy. The new financing package also provides support for the financial empowerment of women in the project area, who will for example be enabled to smoke and package fish.

Moya Multinational: Mueda–Negomano Road Upgrading Phase II Enabling regional trade and a better quality of life for inhabitants of the project area. Mozambique Project Team Leader : João Mabombo, Senior Transport Engineer

The Mueda – Negomano road section is an important link along the Mtwara Corridor to the border with Tanzania at Unity Bridge. The road link to the bridge on the Mozambican side has remained unpaved and in poor condition. Heavy Goods Vehicles spend up to a week to travel the full length of the road of only 163km during the rainy season. The main cash crop is , yet the value chain is small and localized due to spatial exclusion imposed by the Zambezi River and and poor road links to markets.

The current Phase II (Lot A) financing serves to extend the strecth financed by the Bank in Phase I beyond Roma to Mueda. The section will be upgraded to a 7 metre wide bituminous standard road, properly signed and with all the bridges and culverts rehabilitated. It will include the construction of access roads, weigh bridges, roadside stations, and a cycle lane, in addition to support for women’s entrepreneurship environmental and social mitigation measures along the corridor, especially water-related facilities to ease the burden of water collection.

Journeys to the ports of Pemba in Mozambique and Mtwara in Tanzania will be more direct, effectively enhancing regional integration and trade opportunities for the 1.8 million people living in the .

Annual Report 2019 49 Multinational: Lake Tanganyika Transport Corridor Development Burundi Phase I concerns the rehabilitation of Bujumbura Port, opening up new possibilities for maritime transport. Project Team Leader : John NDIKUMWAMI, Senior Transport Engineer

Transport on the Tanganyika Lake Corridor is hampered by inadequate port and navigation infrastructue and lack of harmonised measures to facilitate cross-border trade and movement of people. Infrastructure at Bujumbura Port has not been upgraded since the port was built in the 1950s and therefore cannot meet future demand.

The project involves upgrading and expanding port infrastructure, including the number of quays and the basins for navy bessels. Port facilities will also be acquired, including cranes, patrol and rescue ships, and lighthouses.

The rehabilitation of Bujumbura Port will reduce port of call times for vessels and increase the capacity of terminal, thereby creating economic opportunities and stimulating cross-border trade with countries bordering the lake. Additionally, the rehabilitation of the port will unlock multimodal transport potential via the railway and the lake, thereby offering a more cost-effective, safe and environmentally friendly transport mix for the 1.25 million inhabitants, 53% of which are women. The project will also boost trade in a wide range of agricultural, manufactured and fishery products.

Somalia An important contribution to value chains in the livestock and agriculture sectors, and an adequate response to fragility. Project Team Leader : Jumbe Katala, Senior Transport Engineer

Transport infrastructure in Somalia has suffered from years of neglect. Their condition has deteriorated in particular due to the difficulties encountered in carrying out maintenance and improvement works in the difficult prevailing institutional and security context.

The total length of the country’s main roads is 4,124 km, of which 2,860 km are surfaced and 1,264 km are unpaved or gravel. 90% of paved roads are severely degraded and unsuitable for vehicles. Restoring and improving connectivity is essential for economic revitalization and political integration.

The project area is home to a population of over 2 million people who will benefit from improved connectivity, reduced travel time and transportation costs, and a better quality of life. This project will offer employment opportunities to women and young people; Project communities will also benefit indirectly from the improved environment and economic activities. Along the Galkayo-Hobyo section for example, the population suffers from severe water scarcity, with families collecting water runoff from the road. A budget of $0.68M for ancillary works will serve to drill boreholes and build solar water systems for these communities.

Mogadishu Annual Report 2019 53 Digital Masterplan and Capacity Building Programme for the Greater Banjul Area Technical assistance to assist the Gambia in achieving The Gambia sustainable urban development. Project Team Leader : Victoria Flattau, Senior Urban Development Officer

The Gambia has one of the fastest urbanisation rates in Sub-Saharan Africa, with the Greater Banjul Area already accounting for 68% of the population. Environmental and socio-economic problems have arisen from uncontrolled urban sprawl: deforestation, soil pollution, pollution and waste, in addition to stress on social services.

The project comprises three components. Firstly, project financing will assist in producing a Greater Urban Digital Masterplan for Banjul. Secondly, as part of a capacity building initiative, authorities will be assisted in setting up innovative mechanisms to manage revenue collection, enable development action and leverage private investments in infrastructure, all with the aim of ensuring the sustainability of metropolitan investments. Thirdly, technical support will enable the municipality to set up coordinated and unified platform for project management, with the ability to interpret new data, manage land and recover revenue, among others.

The Bank’s Urban and Municipal Development Fund will offer assistance in urban planning to the Government of the Gambia, Banjul City Council (BCC), Municipal Council, and Brikama Area Council, the Gambia Port Authority and the Ministry of Lands and Regional Government in the Gambia.

Annual Report 2019 Banjul 55 International Airport Bangui-Mpoko International Airport Modernisation Support Project – Phase I Raising safety and security standards in the Central African CAR Republic’s only international airport. Project Team Leader : Augustin KARANGA, Chief Transport Economist

Bangui-Mpoko is the Central African Republic’s only international airport. Commissioned in 1967, it no longer meets the operational requirements of a modern international airport in terms of security, safety, available surface area, arrival capacity, passenger processing, baggage delivery times, facilitation and amenities offered to operators. Failure to meet ICAO Recommended Standards and Practices could ultimately lead to its closure to leading regional and international airlines.

Despite the poor level of service, international traffic rose by 10% between 2017 and 2018 to reach 339,000 passengers. The project is designed to enable the airport to cater for more passengers, with modern equipment for luggage handling and screening. It will be implemented in two phases, with phase I consisting of works on the air terminal and phase II financing complementary works and capacity building of the Civil Aviation Administration.

The project will be a source of construction-related short-term jobs using unskilled labour, including women and young people. In the operational phase, the project will create jobs by contributing to the development of passenger and freight transportation particularly in the agricultural, trade and tourism sectors, in addition to job creation in airport services. Air travellers will benefit from new airline destinations, greater comfort, more regularity and enhanced flight security.
