Project Description
Disaster recovery will pursue the urgent reconstruction of priority roads and bridges in Khatlon damaged during the May-July 2021 floods and mudflows, which the GoRT has not been able to finance out of its own resources. These will re-establish resilient local and regional connectivity and access to markets and services and be rehabilitated using climate- and disaster-resilient designs, materials and works.
