1326 SMEC is now commencing its operations on a US$2.25 million (A$2.2 million) detailed design and construction supervision contract in Tanzania. The project is for rural roads in the Morogoro, Iringa and Ruvuma Regions of Tanzania and was awarded by the Ministry of Finance. This project forms part of the national Improvement of Rural Roads in Tanzania Program. The programme aims to eliminate bottlenecks identified in the 2006 Local Governments Roads Inventory and Condition Survey. The survey identified areas of poor road alignment, inferior pavement conditions as well as areas which required maintenance across 58,000km of rural roads. SMEC’s services are to be delivered in two phases. Phase one includes planning of the programme in consultation with the Prime Minister’s Office (Regional Administration Local Government), preparation of detailed designs and tender documents and tender assistance.
