(Business in Cameroon) - The inhabitants of the South region eagerly await the construction of this road as it would put an end to their struggle to evacuate their farm products from the countryside to the cities. Campo is the last town on the Cameroon-Equatorial Guinea border.

The 75 km long Kribi-Campo road is impassable in the rainy season, and is equally difficult in the dry season. Once completed, this road will link Kribi, headquarters of the Ocean division and the marine terminal of Campo. Forest, agriculture and aquacultural products from Campo will easily reach markets in Cameroon and neighboring countries.

With the construction of the Kribi deep seaport, the Kribi-Campo road would offer multiple trade opportunities with Gabon and Equatorial Guinea.

Estimated at 26.5 billion CFA francs (€ 40 million), funding is still sought, according to the Ministry of Public works. Once funding is available, a call for tenders will be launched for the selection of the companies to construct the road and supervise the execution of works.
