WESTERN EUROPE-WESTERN CHINA INTERNATIONAL TRANSIT CORRIDOR (30 avr. 2009 – 31 déc. 2021)

Description:

The South West Roads Project aims to increase transport efficiency along the road sections between Aktobe/Kyzylorda Oblast border and Shymkent and to improve road management and traffic safety in Kazakhstan. The restructuring would reallocate savings which were obtained in the amount of US$441 million, including US$375 million of the Loan and US$66 million of the Government co-financing, following the completed bidding process for the civil works financed under the project. The savings will allow the financing of the upgrade of an additional 80 kilometers of the same highway, as an extension to the section currently financed west of Shymkent city. The restructuring of the project calls for an adjustment of the development objective to include the additional 80 kilometers of roads that are outside the original project location. The restructuring also includes an extension of the project closing date by 18 months to allow for the additional civil works
