Identifying constraining factors and good practice in Ghana’s rural transport services, allows for evidence-based policy suggestions.

This inception report provides the overall framework for the study. It highlights the project background, use of the rapid rural appraisal methodology and the criteria for the selection of the surveyed roads in the 3 ecological zones of Ghana. A detailed implementation plan is also provided to guide the stakeholders of the project.
