The 31.7km road rehabilitation project from Henderson to Mberande Bridge is nearing completion, with 96% of the work done. While the main paving is finished, the contractor is now focused on safety features. Current tasks include completing culvert work at Foxwood, installing guardrails, guideposts, and signage over the next two months. Road marking materials have arrived, with line painting underway.

These safety features are crucial for regulating traffic and ensuring safety for drivers and pedestrians. This road upgrade is part of the Land and Maritime Connectivity Project (LMCP), a collaboration between the Asian Development Bank (ADB) and the Solomon Islands Government, with China Civil Engineering Construction Corporation (CCECC) undertaking the works. The project aims to provide smoother and safer travel across the Guadalcanal Plains
