Resumen
Descripción
Vietnam's economic emergence is
perhaps best experienced along its rural roads: over 175,000
km of pavement, rubble and dirt track extend to two-thirds
of the country's population and nearly all of the
poorest people, who live among its productive farms, lush
forests and meandering river valleys. The World Bank's
Third Rural Transport Project (RTP3) identified missing
links that left many rural Vietnamese communities off the
map from the country's remarkable development
successes. The project prioritized road maintenance and
local infrastructure management above new construction
projects, and collaborated with the government institutions
to address steep increases in travel costs per kilometer
across crumbling rural roads. Project staff identified
barriers along the route to more accessible road networks,
including a lack of incentives to local bureaucracies to
regularly maintain rural roads in remote areas. This
situation has lead to deteriorating roads in places that are
desperate for improved access to goods, services and social networks.
