Funding worth US$800 million is being provided by the 943 Asian Development Bank (ADB) to help rebuild and upgrade Kazakhstan's road network. At present the road system in Kazakhstan includes a high percentage of unmade roads and the programme will help ensure that the most heavily-used of these links are surfaced. Other surfaced roads will benefit from upgrades and improvements to tackle issues such as subsidence and potholes and make these links wider and safer. In all the funding will be delivered by the ADB to the authorities Kazakhstan in three tranches, with the first worth some $283 million. Kazakhstan plans to rebuild some 790km of roads in its Mangistau region.
