A country without a single highway, despite its enormous massiveness | World

Highways crisscross countries around the world, allowing drivers to travel quickly.

But this does not apply to people living in one nation in Africa.

This is despite the fact that it is the second largest country on the continent by area and the 11th largest in the world.

This is the Democratic Republic of the Congo, which has a population of 109 million, making it the most populous French-speaking country in the world.

Maybe they’re all happy they didn’t get into another motorway accident.

According to the Logistics Cluster website, the country’s roads are in dire need of repairs after years of armed conflict.

The DRC is said to have 58,358 km of national roads, 86,615 km of rural roads and 7,400 km of urban roads.

But they say that only five percent of the nation’s roads are paved.

The closest the DRC has to anything resembling a motorway are the two main arterial roads of the national road network.

These are the East-West road (which links the port of Matadi with Lubumbashi via Kinshasa) and the North-South road (links Lubumbashi with Goma, Bukavu and Kisangani).

The East-West Road was originally a dirt road, but was converted following an agreement with China.

After the completion of the project, the China State Construction Engineering Corporation was awarded the contract to build the highway.

It lasted from 2008 to 2016 and at that time was the largest infrastructure project in the history of Sino-Congolese cooperation. On March 1, 2016, traffic on national highway No. 1 opened.

Congolese President Denis Sassou Nguesso said Chinese builders “have realized the dream of generations of the Congolese people, and China has been sincerely helping us develop our economy.”

The British government advises against all travel to parts of the Democratic Republic of Congo due to safety concerns.
