China's strength has been added to the infrastructure construction in Central Africa, and CRBC has successfully won the EPC project for the core highway in Gabon. This transportation artery located in the capital city of Libreville will undergo comprehensive renovation and reconstruction to alleviate regional traffic congestion, activate local economic and trade vitality, and also mark the continuous acceleration of China's infrastructure network layout in Africa.

Empowering local transportation development

The 1A phase toll road project in Gabon, which was signed this time, is located in Libreville and is the core access channel in the southern part of the area. The project includes the repair and upgrading of 93 kilometers of roads, the repair of two small bridges, and the construction of one medium-sized bridge and three toll stations. As the political and economic core and largest port of Gabon, Libreville carries the main cargo distribution work throughout the country. After the completion of the project, it will completely break through the traffic bottleneck of the road section, improve the efficiency of connecting the capital and the southern region, and provide stable financial support for the long-term operation and maintenance of the highway through the construction of toll stations, helping to build the local economic corridor.

Deeply cultivate and expand the layout in Africa

As a core enterprise of China Communications Construction Corporation, CRBC has been deeply involved in the African infrastructure market for many years, with strong strength and complete qualifications. This signing is a continuation of the company's deep cultivation of the Gabon market. Previously, the company had already laid out its presence in the North African and Moroccan markets, steadily advancing its cross regional development strategy. The current demand for infrastructure upgrading in Central Africa is strong, and the development prospects of toll road models are broad. CRBC breaks away from the traditional single point construction model and builds infrastructure networks in Central and North Africa, effectively reducing market risks and continuously improving supply chain levels and localized operational capabilities.

This project is an important pivot for CRBC to deepen its cultivation in Central Africa. Relying on mature EPC general contracting technology, China Infrastructure is helping African infrastructure to shift from basic filling to quality upgrading, and continues to write a new chapter of mutually beneficial cooperation between China and Africa.Editor/Min Jing
