De weg strekt zich uit over 22 km, waarvan 20 km is verbeterd, en verbindt 8 dorpen, 7.000 inwoners en honderden bedrijven tussen de hoofdstad Apia en het zuiden van het eiland. Het is een belangrijke alternatieve route voor evacuatie bij cyclonen en voor hulpverlening na rampen.<\/p>\n<p>De corridor raakte zwaar beschadigd door de tropische cycloon Evan. De weg is smal en in semi-stedelijke gebieden ontbreken voorzieningen voor voetgangers, waardoor het moeilijk is om forenzen en voetgangers, waaronder school- en universiteitsstudenten, die langs de weg lopen te beschermen. De wegligging is in heuvelachtige gedeelten onveilig, vooral bij nat weer.<\/p>\n<p>Er is een project gaande, gefinancierd door de Aziatische Ontwikkelingsbank (ADB) met een subsidie van 1,9 biljoen dollar, om de weg veiliger, effici\u00ebnter en beter bestand tegen klimaatverandering en rampen te maken. De wegontwerpen werden v\u00f3\u00f3r de bouw al veiliger gemaakt met een subsidie van 1,5 biljoen dollar. <a href=\"https:\/\/irap.org\/nl\/star-rating-for-designs\/\">Star Rating for Designs<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p><a class=\"et-button\" href=\"https:\/\/resources.irap.org\/General\/IRAP_Samoa_CCIR_SR4D_Case_Study.pdf\">Download de casestudy hier<\/a><\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>A new case study on Star Rating for Designs in Samoa is now available for download.
