In the wake of recent disruptions along the Windhoek-Rehoboth corridor, the Ministry of Works and Transport, in collaboration with the Roads Authority, has embarked on constructing a permanent two-way bypass to restore seamless connectivity between the two localities.

The Minister of Works and Transport said that even though he is satisfied with the different classifications of roads, such as tarred, paved, gravel, and those difficult to access, a lot still needs to be done, especially for the roads in remote areas.

The Bukalo-Muyako-Ngoma road will soon be constructed to a low-volume standard, improving accessibility for communities in the area.

This project is expected to make travel easier and safer for residents, businesses, and farmers who rely on the road for their daily activities.

The Chairperson of the Keetmanshoop Municipal Management Committee, Easter Isaak, has revealed to nbc News three capital projects that will soon commence at the southern town valued at N$10 million.

The Okahandja municipality is embarking on a number of projects to improve service delivery.

Among the projects are the construction of a fire station, the consolidation of plots 117 and 118, developing agricultural plots for the residents, and the Okahandja Medi Park.

The Deputy Minister of Works and Transport, Veiko Nekundi, says the government remains committed to ensuring that improved road infrastructure continues to enjoy priority both in urban and rural areas.

Deputy Minister of Urban and Rural Development, Eveline !Nawases-Taeyele, stated that the Oshakati Town Council remains committed to holistic urban development strategies that prioritise inclusivity and sustainability. 

The Roads Authority (RA) Chief Executive Officer is not impressed with the slow progress on the Engoyi-Omuntele road upgrade.

The road construction commenced in October last year and was to be completed by September this year.
