Key Roads in Kratie Province Near Completion with 68.7% Progress Across 48.59km

The rehabilitation of two vital roads in Kratie province, extending over 48.59 kilometres, has reached a 68.7% completion milestone as of 19 August 2024, marking significant progress in the province’s transportation infrastructure upgrade, according to a progress report by the Ministry of Public Work and Transport dated 19 August 2024.

This project includes extensive improvements to Provincial Road No. 377, which spans 35.5km from the “white” roundabout in Kratie city to Sambo district, and Road 377A, which covers 13.6km from Sandan market to Sangkom village in the Sandan commune of Sambo district,

These key routes are crucial for the province’s tourism and transportation sectors, providing essential access to prominent resorts along the east bank of the Mekong River, such as the Phnom Sakok tourist area, Kampi Dolphin Resort, Kampi Waterfront Resort, Preah Thom, Vihear Sorsor 100, and the Koh 30 Tourist Community.

In addition to tourism, the improved roads are expected to enhance the swift transportation of goods and agricultural products, thereby driving economic growth and strengthening connectivity within the province.

The construction and rehabilitation efforts are being led by Poly Changda Engineering Co., Ltd under the concession credit framework provided by the World Bank (RCIP), demonstrating strong international support and investment in Cambodia’s infrastructure development. (Read more)
