A better connection for Rwaza sector residents, the new bridge is completed!

  • No more isolation for Rwaza sector residents, the new bridge is complete!

The completion of a new bridge in the Musanze district's Rwaza sector represents an important improvement in local infrastructure, enhancing the lives of the community members significantly. This new bridge, which spans 5 meters in both width and length, was constructed over 4 weeks between January and February 2024, with a budget of 18.5 million Rwandan francs and the active participation of the community. It serves as a critical connection for residents, facilitating easier access to main roads and thereby improving mobility for essential services such as schools, health centres, and markets for farmers.

Replacing an old structure made of wooden poles, which was regularly washed away by floods, this new construction not only ensures safer and more reliable transportation but also mitigates the risk of accidents and reduces the community's vulnerability to isolation during adverse weather conditions. Funded by Region Bruxelles Capitale and realized through a collaboration between Enabel's Urban Economic Development initiative (UEDi) and the Musanze District, the bridge stand as a manifesto of the power of partnership in addressing infrastructural challenges.

This development not only physically bridges gaps within the community but also symbolically represents progress towards resilience and security. By providing a durable solution to a longstanding problem, the bridge significantly contributes to the socio-economic development of the Rwaza sector and its surrounding areas, marking a pivotal step forward in the district's ongoing efforts to enhance its infrastructure and the quality of life of its residents.
