On Friday, November 1, 2024, Namibia witnessed a historic milestone in its journey towards advanced infrastructure and national development. The Windhoek-Okahandja Dual Carriageway (Section 4b) was officially inaugurated, marking the completion of a project that will undoubtedly leave a lasting impact on the nation’s economic and social landscape.
This momentous occasion was graced by the presence of H.E. President Nangolo Mbumba and H.E. Former President Hifikepunye Pohamba, along with other distinguished dignitaries, partners, and stakeholders. Their attendance underscored the significance of this transformative project, which has been a beacon of progress for the country over the past five years.
The dual carriageway, a project undertaken by the CMC/OTESA Joint Venture, began in September 2019 and represents a testament to what collaboration, expertise, and dedication can achieve. The successful completion of this state-of-the-art road is a proud moment for Namibia, highlighting the critical role infrastructure plays in national development and economic growth.
Bridging Regions, Connecting LivesStretching across the Khomas and Otjozondjupa regions, the Windhoek-Okahandja Dual Carriageway is more than just a road. It is a lifeline that enhances connectivity between these two critical regions, fostering trade, commerce, and mobility.
The road’s completion means safer and more efficient travel for thousands of Namibians who use this route daily, contributing to improved road safety and reduced travel times. Beyond improved mobility, the carriageway opens up access to essential services, such as healthcare, education, and markets, for communities along its route. This enhanced connectivity is a significant step in bridging regional disparities and empowering citizens.
Boosting Economic Growth and DevelopmentAs a vital artery of Namibia’s road network, the dual carriageway is a catalyst for economic development. By facilitating the seamless movement of goods and people, it supports businesses, stimulates investment, and promotes regional integration. It also strengthens Namibia’s position as a logistics hub in Southern Africa, aligning with the nation’s long-term developmental goals.
A Collaborative Success StoryThe completion of this transformative project is a result of years of meticulous planning, commitment, and collaboration between various stakeholders. The partnership between CMC and OTESA Civil Engineering has showcased the power of joint efforts in delivering infrastructure that drives national progress.
Their dedication and technical expertise have not only delivered a world-class road but also demonstrated the potential of local and international partnerships in achieving infrastructure excellence. This project stands as a shining example of what is possible when stakeholders work together towards a shared vision.
Celebrating Progress, Building the FutureAs we celebrate the official opening of the Windhoek-Okahandja Dual Carriageway, we are reminded of the immense potential of infrastructure to transform lives and build a better future for all Namibians.
This achievement aligns with OTESA Civil Engineering’s brand promise, “Engineering the Nation’s Progress,” and underscores our commitment to delivering impactful projects that drive economic growth and improve quality of life.
