Maputo city centre roads get overhaul.
Work to overhaul the road network in the cidade cimento (city centre) will end in December, the person in charge of city infrastructure has said. The works, which began almost a year ago, have involved more than 20 roads covering a total of 35 km. They have been financed by OPEC fund of the Arab Bank for Economic Development of Africa (BADEA) and the Mozambican government to a total of US$22.3 million. The project has involved creating a rainwater drainage system, installing drainage channels at all crossroads and areas where water accumulates and introducing pavements.
