In 2017, Egypt 🇪🇬 was not among the Top 10 African Countries with the best roads. They were ranked 107th globally behind Zimbabwe.
✍️Five years later in 2022, they are ranked number 2 in Africa after Namibia and 28th globally.
✍️Egypt’s remarkable achievement is attributed to the national road project launched in August 6, 2014.
✍️The state embarked on the construction of bridges, interchanges and new road network with lengths of 7,000 km at a total cost of $211 billion.
✍️The project is believed to have resulted in a decrease in the rates of road accident by 41 percent, the injuries by more than 50 percent and the mortality rate.
