Project Overview
Period :
Oct 2024 – Aug 2026 (30 months)
Client :
Ministry of Agriculture (World Bank funded)
Location :
Central & Luapula Provinces, Zambia
Scope of Works: This project focused on the upgrading and rehabilitation of 130km of feeder roads to improve farm block access in Central and Luapula provinces. The team conducted topographic and terrain reviews using satellite imagery to determine alignment. The designs covered pavement structures, drainage systems, and road safety improvements, while tender documentation and procurement support were provided. During construction supervision, activities included monitoring of drainage works, stabilization of base and sub-base layers, compliance with the Resettlement Action Plan, and implementation of QA systems. The improved road network significantly strengthened agricultural production and trade, benefiting local communities and farmers.
Phase I – Concept Design Review: Reviewed topographic maps, alignments, and terrain conditions. Verified control points, checked town sections, and proposed measures for problematic areas like landslide-prone and swampy regions. Prepared tender documents and Employer’s Requirements.
Phase II – Construction Supervision: Verified surveys, geotechnical reports, hydrology, and material sources. Approved engineering drawings and ensured compliance with standards. Monitored contractor works, utility relocations, resettlement actions, and established a quality assurance system.
