point 8 of the Global Call to Action Against Poverty, 58th annual
NGO Conference, United Nations,
The kinds of
transport available include bicycles, taxi motor bike and public service
vehicles for easy communication to various destinations. The means chosen
depends on the distance and where the person is going and the type of transport
used. Bicycle taxis and motor bikes are the most characteristic means of
transport in the area. They charge a minimum € 0.17 per kilometre. The wet
seasons restrict the use of the bicycle taxis which used more during dry
season. A vehicle costs passengers €0.34 per km. They tend to be used on the
better roads, though some operate on bad roads as well.
The roads in the
rural areas some are seasonal and murram roads.
During the wet seasons, most
of the roads in the project area are impassable due to the mud etc. and people
have to walk long distances. Pickup are also widely
used for transportation. During the rainy seasons the transportation of farm
produce becomes difficult if not impossible.
