The limited performance of Africa in international trade and other development activities during the past had thus been due to low sub-regional integration mainly attributed to infrastructure constraints among other factors. Therefore, failure to expand and/or improve transport infrastructures means persisting in low economic performance as a result of limited interaction, due to inadequate transport access, between African countries themselves and with the other parts of the globe. The main objective of the study is to support the on-going efforts towards the revitalization of the Trans East African Highway network and to create awareness on the missing links. It is also aimed at the sensitization of the concerned countries towards the common goal of improving the road network for the development of the inter-regional linkage based on the findings, in order to promote economic integration within the countries themselves and between the sub-regions, as well as external regions such as Western Asia.
