World Bank Funds $13 million For Mizoram Roads

The World Bank has approved a credit worth $13 million in additional financing for the Mizoram State Roads Project to continue revitalizing and modernising the state’s highway system. The project will help improve the management and carrying capacity of the core state road network in order to lower transportation bottlenecks and costs, and stimulate economic activity in the North East Indian state.

The project will help widen and improve 180 kms of state highways, and rehabilitate and maintain another 300 kms. It will also finance improvement in equipment and training for the state Public Works Department.
