The Bank\u2019s board of directors approved the follow-up loan on 22 June 2022.<\/p>\n<p>PARZIK is a project to improve road traffic between Edea, Kribi and Kribi. Kribi has a deep-water port. The 110 km of badly damaged road linking the towns will be rehabilitated as part of the project. The road will be extended to Equatorial Guinea, connecting the two countries. Additionally, a bridge will be built over the Ntem River to strengthen the national and trans-African corridors such as Douala-Kribi-Bata, Kribi-Yaound\u00e9-Bangui and Kribi-Yaound\u00e9-N\u2019Djamena.<\/p>\n<p>The second loan will go towards the PCADY Project, a large-scale operation that was started in 2013 to reduce flooding in Cameroon capital. It also aims to improve stormwater management and public hygiene.\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>With the new loan of almost \u20ac33.5 million, Yaound\u00e9 will continue to address the residual flooding that occurs in the city centre including on Avenue Kennedy. A flood control basin and improved solid waste management will both be constructed. A number of facilities, playgrounds, and green spaces are planned, just like in the first two phases.<\/p>\n<p>A Global Environment Facility (GEF), $8 million grant will be made available to the PCADY project for this new phase. This will be used to finance the design studies for the planned Ongot landfill in Yaound\u00e9, in addition to the construction in Douala\u2019s Ngomb\u00e9 district. the construction of a treatment center for special and\/or dangerous industrial waste.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI thank you for the impetus that our cooperation has just received under your leadership. The fulfilment of these two operations is the fruit of your efforts, combined with those of your staff who, together with ours, made up a dynamic and committed team dedicated to the achievement of our country\u2019s development objectives,\u201d said Minister Mey during the signing ceremony, which he attended with other members of government.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cFor the African Development Bank Group, these two operations bring the volume of its active portfolio in Cameroon to almost \u20ac2 billion, broken down into 25 operations,\u201d said N\u2019Guessan of the African Development Bank. He added: \u201cThe transport sector alone accounts for 51.6% of the portfolio, or more than \u20ac1 billion, demonstrating the leading role of the African Development Bank Group in financing the transport sector in the country and the sub-region.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n<p><i>Distributed by APO Group for African Development Bank Group (AfDB).<\/i><\/p>\n<p><strong>Contact Media<\/strong><br \/>Fa\u00efza Ghozali<br \/>Communication and External Relations Department<br \/><span class=\"__cf_email__\" data-cfemail=\"e18c84858880a180878583cf8e9386\">[email\u00a0protected]<\/span><\/p>\n<p><strong>About the African Development Bank Group<\/strong><br \/>The African Development Bank Group is Africa\u2019s premier development finance institution.
