Ensa Joura I - for Road Infrastructure Improvement in Lebanon

MIF collaborated with the MTV and DSD to address Lebanon's critical pothole problem, aiming to enhance road safety, reduce car accidents, and improve overall infrastructure in an environmentally sustainable manner. Benefiting from an innovative British technology, the project utilized a specialized truck equipped with advanced emulsion techniques for efficient and lasting pothole repairs. Additionally, the use of the velocity machine contributed to a greener approach to infrastructure repair by eliminating waste and minimizing environmental impact.

Central to this, is the involvement of IPT's extensive network of stations, spread all over the Lebanese territory, serving as pivotal notification centers enabling citizens to report potholes’ locations. Through the 1,000 m² of potholes repaired, MIF succeeded in enhancing road conditions, leading to safer transportation and a reduction in road accidents, casualties, and injuries across the targeted areas.

Over the course of 3 months, MIF repaired potholes in 8 out of 25 regions in Lebanon, namely Akkar, Batroun, Byblos, Kesserwan, Koura, Matn, Minieh Dannieh, and Zgharta. Representing over 30% of the country's regions, this project received positive feedback from citizens, municipality representatives, and local authorities, highlighting a community satisfaction that was deeply felt in multiple regions. Furthermore, the collaboration between MIF, DSD and MTV demonstrated the effectiveness of joint efforts, with both organizations working closely to ensure the successful execution of the project.
