This report covers visits of the expert team to the countries and recommendations for the project implementation

Abstract

The Africa Community Access Partnership (AfCAP) is funding the preparation of manuals for Low Volume Roads for 3 AfCAP member countries in the West Africa sub-region: Liberia, Sierra Leone and Ghana.

The new manuals will draw on documentation recently developed in other AfCAP participating countries. This inception report covers initial visits of the expert team to the three countries and the findings and recommendations for the implementation of the project.

This project is funded by DFID under the Applied Research on Rural Roads and Transport Services through Community Access Programmes in Africa and Asia (AFCAP2 and AsCAP)
