The development objective of the Second Additional Financing for the Economic and Monetary Community of Central Africa (CEMAC) Transport and Transit Facilitation Project is to facilitate regional trade among the CEMAC member states and improve the Central African Republic, the Republic of Cameroon and the Republic of Chad's access to world markets. The restructuring will use the International Development Association (IDA) resources freed by the parallel financing arrangement with plan Africa in order to finance selected rehabilitation or spot intervention works on the targeted corridor. In particular, the reallocation of funds will be used to finance the partial rehabilitation of the Maroua - Dabanga road section which constitutes one of the most deteriorated sections on the corridor Douala - N'Djamena, and one of the very few sections with no financing identified. The second additional financing will finance rehabilitation works as well as associated supervision and auditing activities, the eventual updating of design studies and safeguards mitigation instruments or measures.
