Abstract: We provide evidence of health impacts of a public–private rural roads maintenance programme in Peru, which is characterized by a contracting mechanism that employs small local firms. Using a difference‐in‐differences approach, we find that improved roads connectivity leads to positive health externalities. © 2018 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.
