Islamic Republic of Mauritania : Transport Sector Overview
The main Poverty Reduction Strategy
Paper (PRSP) objectives for general transport policy are: a)
lower costs, and ensure safe transport for passengers and
goods; b) foster consistent national planning through
multi-modal links between the country's major
development centers; c) promote national integration, and
linkages with the global economy; and, e) involve more
private capital in financing the sector. The PRSP also
includes specific objectives for transport modes, which are
taken into account in this Economic and Sector Work (ESW).
The purpose of this ESW is to provide a framework to help
the Government analyze transport sector issues, and develop
a transport sector strategy for the 2004-2009 period, and,
identify issues and challenges that can be addressed through
donor funded operations. This ESW focuses on road, air, and
maritime transport, and analyzes strategic, and
cross-cutting issues important to the sector as a whole.
Recommendations include: corrections to the imbalance
between investment and maintenance; improvement of the road
maintenance financing mechanism; pursuit of a road
investment program; strengthening the road management
system; updating regulations to ensure effective
liberalization of transport services; revision of the fiscal
policy for the sector; improvement of the balance between
supply and demand; and, identifying a mechanism for
supporting the trucking industry.
