Taking place in a very remote site at 230km from the capital Maseru, this project was awarded by the Lesotho Ministry of Public Works & Transports (Roads Directorate). Reinforced Earth South Africa was in charge of designing and supplying RE materials for the two Reinforced Earth\u00ae abutments.<\/h2>\n

The aim of the project was to upgrade road access across rivers and replace low-level bridges that flood during the rainy season.<\/p>\n

Having previously constructed the abutments for 3 river bridges in Lesotho, the contractor, China Geo Engineering Corporation, confirmed its satisfaction with RESA\u2019s bridge solutions by the award of this second contract.<\/p>\n
