The National Roads Administration (ANE) predicts that 5,000 kilometers of unpaved roads could be affected during the current rainy and cyclonic season 2025-2026.

The information was provided by the director of ANE's Central Road Maintenance and Safety Services, Rubina Noormahomed, who was speaking this Saturday on Radio Mozambique's Linha Directa program.

The source revealed that the expected damage to the road network in almost all regions of the country could cause losses of more than one billion meticais.

Also during the program, which aimed to analyze the Contingency Plan for the Rainy and Cyclonic Season 2025/2026, Noormahomed said that among the risks, some areas could become impassable and isolated.

For her part, the director of the National Emergency Operations Center, CENOE, Ana Cristina, said that the effects of the rainy season could affect more than two and a half million people.
