Vanuatu’s Climate Resilient Transport Project Boosts Community Access and Safety

In partnership with the Government of Vanuatu, the World Bank is helping deliver safer, more reliable transport on Espiritu Santo Island. The upgraded 65 km South Santo Road and 11 new bridges, as part of the Vanuatu Climate Resilient Transport Project, are now connecting tens of thousands of people to schools, health centers, markets, and jobs, even during floods. Designed to withstand extreme weather and disasters, this work is making daily travel safer, faster, and more affordable for local communities. Learn more: http://wrld.bg/l7wI50X0nIw
