Maintenance strategies designed for Mali's rural road network

Approches pour l'entretien des routes rurales au Mali

To improve both mobility and accessibility in these rural areas, the Malian government adopted in March 2010 a rural transport policy entitled: "National Rural Transport Strategy (or NRTS)".
