Road Maintenance In Cameroon | Sustainable Road maintenance strategy Road Maintenance In Cameroon | Sustainable Road maintenance strategy. Currently, Cameroon’s road network is 121,873.93 kilometers long. However, only 48.86% of that network is in a good or average condition. As for the remaining 51.14%, it is in bad condition. Kamerpower.com The maintenance solutions implemented till now have demonstrated their limitations and call for a new efficient and sustainable strategy. According to the Ministry of Public Works, the feedbacks obtained in the first years of implementing the strategy will serve as a guideline for the elaboration of a dirt roads’ maintenance technical guide. The guide will point out the technical specifications, the problems encountered, and the appropriate solutions as well as implementation protocols for each ecological zone. That way, dirt roads’ lifetime will be extended at optimized costs. The poor condition of those roads is due to a lack of maintenance fundings. To address the situation, the government intends to not only concede the road maintenance but also implement a new strategy aimed at ensuring the sustainability of dirt roads that constitute well over 93% of the national road network. The new strategy was developed because the Ministry of Public Works noticed that the maintenance solutions implemented so far have limitations.
