The proposed land corridor would run from Bernice Port through Egypt, Libya, and Chad to the road network leading to Cameroon’s Port of Douala, covering about 1,720 kilometres. Cairo says it is building its 400-kilometre section from East Oweinat toward Kufra. The project aims to provide landlocked countries with access to trade routes and cut freight transit time between Egypt and Chad from around three months to one week. Its economic viability, however, has yet to be established, as this requires estimates of trade volumes and construction, operating, and financing costs. In Libya, a memorandum of understanding was signed to prepare studies and preliminary designs for the 390-kilometre section, but there have been no adequate updates on implementation. Chad is completing its studies while work proceeds on the 381-kilometre Abéché–Am Djarass route, whose announced cost is 354.4 billion CFA francs. Observers say the project’s completion depends on coordination among the three countries, clearly defining their commitments, and addressing financing as well as technical and political challenges.
