Project Description: The project development objectives remain unchanged: to increase access to infrastructure and basic services for residents of Benin’s primary cities (Cotonou, Porto-Novo, and Parakou) and selected secondary cities (Abomey-Calavi, Lokossa, and Kandi). The additional financing would scale up the project impact in terms of the number of people gaining access to roads and being protected from periodic flooding.
