The National Development Agency announced a new project on Tuesday. It will connect a strategic network of international roads. The project is part of the “Libya 2030” national development vision.
The road network will cover more than 2,500 kilometers. It will create a vital link between Sirte, Sokna, and Sabha. The route extends to Wadi Al-Tum, a border point with Niger in the country’s far south.
The project includes a network of main roads with modern facilities. Services will include solar-powered lighting and fuel stations. It will also feature ambulance, emergency, civil defense, and firefighting systems. The network will have service stops and rest areas. One section extends from Benghazi eastward to Ajdabiya, then to the oases and Kufra. Another section runs from Sirte westward along the coast to Harawa, Ras Lanuf, and Brega.
Further extensions will connect vital cities and regions. This will use highways, service roads, overpasses, and bridges. The network will reach Benghazi and the Libyan-Egyptian border. All construction will meet high international standards.
The Agency stated the project is under its direct supervision. It is supported by the General Command. The initiative is part of national reconstruction and development efforts. It reflects the state’s vision for sustainable development across Libya.
