Railway network of Republic of Congo

The 510 km Congo-Ocean Railway connects Brazzaville and Pointe-Noire. The road uses a 1.067-m gauge.[1]

Timeline

In 2003, concessioning occurred.[2]

In 2006, rail service was suspended by floods and oil shortages.[3]

On 12 April 2007, a South Korean consortium agreed to build a new 800 km railway in the Congo-Brazzaville Republic in return for timber concessions. The railway would connect Brazzaville to Ouesso in the northwest Sangha region. A two-year feasibility study would take place before a final agreement with the government and starting construction work on the railway.[4]

Highways

Highways span 23,324 km. 3,111 km are paved.[5]

17,000 km of the Congo's railways are classified as national, departmental, and routes of local interest. 6,324 km are non-classified routes.

The National Highway Network includes:

Waterways

Pirogues on the Congo river
