He explained that to this end, new access roads into and out of Zango were identified, in order to facilitate road traffic and mobility, over a 38-kilometre route.
“Within a short time and in collaboration with the Provincial Government of Luanda, within the scope of the integrated infrastructure program, work will begin on the access roads, as the aim is to find a solution for those who live in Zango”, he stated the ruler.
Catete/Maria Teresa section with delays The rehabilitation of the 53 kilometers of the Catete/Maria Teresa section, Estrada Nacional (EN)230, in the Province of Luanda, which began in October 2023, is experiencing significant delays, as unexploded ordnance was found in the train intervention zones.
