Abstract
Considering its regional economic
position, natural endowment, and its socio-economic
development aspirations, it is becoming imperative to Angola
to develop a safe, clean, and efficient transport sector.
The government has recognized that the Angola’s economy
needs the support of a well-integrated and efficient
transport sector and made significant efforts to reconstruct
its dilapidated road infrastructure and it has established a
road maintenance fund. This study has made good use of the
Angola’s Ministry of Finance BOOST data base to review and
analyze the volume and structure of public spending in the
road sector and identify any trends. The road network
evaluation tools model (RONET), developed by the World Bank,
is used to evaluate the preservation (maintenance and
rehabilitation) requirements of the Angola road network.
This road sector public expenditure review (PER) examines
the size and composition, allocation, and implementation of
public expenditure on roads and assesses the efficiency and
effectiveness of these expenditures both at the national and
sub-national levels. It also reviews the overall policy and
institutional framework and makes relevant recommendations.
The objectives of this road sector PER are fully aligned
with the objectives of the World Bank’s country partnership
strategy for Angola, which places a strong emphasis on
supporting Angolan institutions.
