CAREC Transport Corridor I (Bishkek-Torugart Road) Project 2

In order to sustain project benefits it is critical that the project road is appropriately maintained. The frost heave cracking issue needs to be monitored by MOTC (Ministry of Transport and Communications) on an annual basis and, in order to prevent further widening, cracks must be filled as they appear. Whilst maintenance budgets have increased, MOTC needs to allocate further resources to protect the substantial investment in road infrastructure that has occurred on this road corridor over the last decade.
