Expressways of Cambodia

The Expressway network of Cambodia currently consists of one expressway under construction and one under planning. The government has noted three goals for developing an expressway network:[1]

  • Regional Integration with neighbouring countries
  • Linking the wealthier Phnom Penh with other cities to let other provinces benefit from the development
  • Improving the transportation in Cambodia, reducing congestion and allow more suitable roads for heavy trucks
