<\/div>

On the sidelines of the Africa Investment Forum, the African Development Bank and Africa50 have signed yesterday an agreement with the Democratic Republic of Congo and the Republic of Congo to develop and finance the first road-rail bridge project linking their capitals \u2013 Kinshasa and Brazzaville.<\/p>\n

\n

Under the terms of the framework agreement, the two governments have mandated Africa50 and the African Development Bank\u00a0<\/span>to develop the project as a public private partnership, the bank will act as the debt provider under the aegis of the Economic Community of Central African States. As the main developer, Africa50 will lead the project development, help select a strategic partner, and provide equity for construction.<\/p>\n

\n

\u201c<\/strong>Upgrading the infrastructure of the Republic of Congo is one of our foremost priorities, in particularly transport, which can help us diversify our economy through increased trade and investment.\u201d, said\u00a0Jean-Jacques Bouya, Minister of Large Construction Works of the Republic of Congo<\/strong>. \u201cThe positive socio-economic impacts from this project will be significant, stimulating trade and economic growth and creating jobs in the Republic of Congo and beyond\u201d.<\/p>\n

Modeste Bahati Lukwebo, Senior Minister of\u00a0Planning of the Democratic Republic of Congo<\/strong>, added that, \u201cThe construction of this bridge will not only link to the cities, but will speed up regional integration beyond our borders. The Democratic Republic of Congo is proud to be a partner in this effort, which aligns with our vision to modernize basic infrastructure. We look forward to working with Africa50, the African Development Bank and the Economic Community of Central African States\u201d.<\/p>\n

\n

This landmark project, part of the\u00a0Programme for Infrastructure Development in Africa<\/em>\u00a0(PIDA) Priority Action Plan, consists of a 1,575-kilometer toll bridge over the Congo River. It will include a single railway track, a double-lane road, sidewalks, and a\u00a0single\u00a0<\/span>border checkpoint at each end. It will be connected to existing road infrastructure in both countries. The cost\u00a0<\/span>estimate in 2017 was US$550 million.<\/p>\n

\n

The bridge will improve transport networks between Kinshasa and Brazzaville. The two closest capitals in the world are currently only linked by ferries. Once the bridge is built, the existing traffic of an estimated 750,000 people and 340,000 tons of freight a year, is expected to increase to over 3 million people and 2 million tons of freight by 2025.<\/p>\n

\n

The governments of the two countries have long been working on this crucial infrastructure project, signing initial protocols in 2007, and cooperating on and co-funding the feasibility study with the African Development Bank.<\/p>\n

\n

The\u00a0President of the African Development Bank, Akinwumi Adesina<\/strong>\u00a0said \u201cThe idea to connect the two capitals dates back to the mid-19th century. This project is just the beginning, more will follow.\u201d<\/p>\n

\nPierre Guislain, Vice-president: Private Sector, Infrastructure and<\/strong>\u00a0Industrialisation<\/strong>\u00a0of the African Development Bank<\/strong>\u00a0added \u201cThis project is an example of what the Africa Investment Forum is about: creating partnerships between African institutions and, the private sector for transformative projects.\u201d<\/p>\n

\n

Alain Ebobisse, CEO of Africa50\u00a0<\/strong>said, \u201cStraddling two borders, this project presents unique and complex structuring and development challenges, requiring a robust, detailed PPP framework. This is where our expertise in project development can make a difference. With the guidance of the Democratic Republic of Congo and the Republic of Congo; and the support of the African Development Bank and the CEEAC, we are convinced that this transformative project can materialize in a few years.\u201d<\/p>\n
