Trans African Concessions (TRAC) takes pride in being the concessionaire of the Maputo Corridor and is committed to keeping the entirety of this international route in pristine condition and on par with world standards.
For this reason, we continuously implement construction projects along the route. These not only allow us to conduct routine road maintenance and rehabilitation of what already exists but also provides the opportunity to do major upgrades such as building additional lanes on the road as well as the construction of interchanges and bridges.
