Myanmar Transport Sector Policy Note: Trunk Roads

Asian Development Bank Institute

Working Papers from eSocialSciences

Abstract: This report reviews how the road sector in Myanmar can make the greatest contribution to the country’s national ambitions as possible. It seeks to identify bottlenecks and attempts to formulate possible policy answers. Myanmar’s road network needs rehabilitation, improvement and ultimately, total modernization. The issue is what to prioritize. Whichever approach is taken, the country’s current road sector is unlikely to be able to scale up and deliver upon the population’s expectations without a comprehensive modernization of its financing mechanisms, its institutional organizations, and the business processes used for planning, construction, and road maintenance.
