comments:
MPW and MoF and R4D-SP
challenges:
Long-term planning and budget is required. Business growth is affected by many contextual factors
success:
Opportunity to support productive sectors of the economy and use roads as a vehicle to support business and private sector development.
context:
The ultimate sustainability of the program is dependent upon a growing private sector that derives benefits from the road network and supports the economy as a whole. Therefore roads have a critical role to play in supporting economic growth and development. Need significant amounts of investment upfront to support development, however in the longer-term the raising of revenue and taxes from increased business turnover is a way to generate future government revenue.
description:
It is important to view rural roads support as a component of private sector development, employment generaration and economic growth, particularly in response to the COVID-19 situation. When viewed as a broad package, there is broader scope to channel support and assistance and to view roads as a component of support to help rural economies develop economically
