Roads
Most road building occurred in the 1960’s, funded by the
U.S. and other international partners. In 1964, a road and tunnel
was built through the Salang tunnel, connecting northern and
southern Afghanistan. A highway connecting the principal cities
of Heart, Kandahar, Ghazni, and Kabul with links to highways
in neighboring Pakistan formed the primary road system.
Since 2001, many sections of Afghanistan’s
highway and regional road system are undergoing significant
reconstruction. The U.S., with assistance from Japan, completed
building a highway linking Kabul to the southern regional capital,
Kandahar. Construction has begun on the next phase of highway
reconstruction between Kandahar and the western city of Herat.
The Asian Development Bank is nearing completion on a road reconstruction
project between Kandahar and Spin Boldak, located at the southeastern
border with Pakistan.
