Thanks to a technology and a futurist architecture, the Yaounde-Nsimalen motorway will undoubtedly transform the face of the political capital of Cameroon and Its environs into a town of class.
The interminable stoppers, the urban disorder and other road congestions will be brought to the barest minimum some vehicles can now use the left turn to maneuver to Yaounde and its surroundings.
If one sticks to the model of the project of construction of the Yaounde-Nsimalen motorway which has just been published by the ministry for Housing and the urban development (Minhdu), the political capital of Cameroon will present a revolutionized face.
With its 2 X 3 ways, seven (07) exchangers are envisaged. The latter will be distributed as follows: Nsimalen, Meyo, Ahala, Nsam crossroads, trois statues crossroads, crossroads first ministry and behind combatant. The direct effects on the capital city and its occupants are known.
The project will not only contribute to the rectification and with embellishment in the city but will also decrease the congestion rate.
The pavement, the re-establishment of the transportation routes (optical fibre, mobile telephony…) and of hydraulic network etc are inter alia the benefits which will come as advantages that construction will induce from the aforesaid motorway.
The setting-up of this gigantic project was thought by the members of the steering committee. Its implementation is divided into two sections: an urban section of 10 km which leaves station MRS Ahala and goes to Tsinga while passing by the crossroads trois statues, the central post office and the Warda crossroads. Its realization was entrusted to three companies.
The first batch (Ahala-Nsam-Crossroads trois statues) of 5,8 km will be carried out by Chinese Sinohydro corporation. The second batch of 1,9 km (Crossroads trois statues-Oilybia Olezoa-Mess of the central officer-station) will be built by another Chinese company, Clouded in Road and Bridge corporation.
The last batch of 2,1 km (Crossroads Warda-New road Bastos-Esplanade Tsinga sub-prefecture) will return to Arab contractors Cameroon; and the rural section which leaves the Nsimalen roundabout to station MRS of Ahala, is 10,8 km.
The project extends on approximately 20km and will cost approximately 39 billion. Work has already begun for the rural section. The work will be delivered in 36 months according to members' of the steering committee.
