Project Description

The Diema-Nioro road represents the last section with a length of 96.5 km of the road corridor linking Bamako (Mali) and Nouakchott (Mauritania).

This project is part of the new projects that fall within the PIN. It is an essential continuity with adjacent sections upstream and downstream that have already been developed or are in the process of being rehabilitated to the proposed standard, thus achieving a desirable route homogeneity across the regional axis Bamako – Nouakchott.

The main objective of the project is to contribute to the emergency at a national level to have a well-developed primary road network, which translates into a reduction in transport costs, at the same time secures the delivery of food products and help food, and generally reduces the isolation of the country in its dual dimension inside and outside. The primary objective for the Region of Kayes is the realization of the last stretch of road linking Bamako to Nouakchott.
