This is road reconstruction week.

The Express writes, ?For several years now the Ministry of Transport and Public Works (MTTP) has dedicated a week to road repair and reconstruction. For 2006 the work begins today with the official ceremony at Ambohidratrimo. This kind of road repair work fits right in with the governments political plans. Since his placement at the head of the department a few months ago, Minister Roland Randriamampionona has personally underlined the importance of this project.? For a several years now the national government has made the improvement of the roads a national priority. However the roadblocks have been many and often the financial resources have not been available.
