In Kaolack, Senegal, Minister of Infrastructure Déthié Fall inspected completed roadwork funded by the Programme de modernisation des villes (Promovilles). Fall and a local prefect visited several neighborhoods, Médina Baye, Tally Thioffack, Cœur de ville, and Bongré, to assess the progress of the project.

The government finished paving 4.238 kilometers of local roads in Kaolack for nearly 3 billion FCFA, adding to 7 kilometers already rehabilitated.

Fall explained the work supports President Macky Sall’s vision to expand infrastructure improvements into residential areas, complementing national roadwork done by Ageroute. The government also plans to continue this urban development in Thiès and Saint-Louis, and is simultaneously implementing the PA2VS program. PA2VS will cover 99 municipalities and build over 302 kilometers of roads and more than 100 kilometers of drainage systems, aiming to improve living conditions for residents across the country.
