African Road Infrastructure Ranking

 






The World Bank describes roads as the vital lifelines of the economy, connecting producers to markets, facilitating commutes to work and school, and ensuring access to healthcare. In the African context, countries are investing significantly in roads, recognizing their role in fostering economic growth, job opportunities, and interconnected communities. Beyond physical connectivity, well-maintained roads symbolize a nation's dedication to progress, providing smoother journeys for both citizens and visitors.



A novel measure of road quality, the Mean Speed (MS) score, developed by the International Monetary Fund using Google Maps data, reveals that certain African countries excel in road infrastructure. This score is closely linked to the World Bank's Rural Access Index and the WEF's Quality of Road Infrastructure score. The top 10 African countries with the best road infrastructure, based on the MS score, include South Africa, Namibia, Morocco, Botswana, Libya, Algeria, Zimbabwe, Egypt, Côte d'Ivoire, and Tunisia.
