Caiundo (Angola), 18 August 2025 – The rehabilitation of the EN 140/295 is one of Angola’s priority infrastructure undertakings and a central modernisation project for the southern province of Cuando Cubango. The route connects the localities of Caiundo, Mbalatchau and Savate, and is of decisive importance for regional mobility, access to education and healthcare, and the movement of goods across the south of the country.

A step in the modernisation of national infrastructure

Local communities in Cuando Cubango celebrate the start of work on the EN 140/295.
