SGS offers Project Management Services for Massive Road Project in Senegal
In January 2010, SGS Industrial Services was awarded a contract to provide Project Management Services, Health, Safety and Environment Management and Quality Control inspections for one of the biggest road building projects in the recent history of Senegal by AGEROUTE, the Road Administration Agency in Senegal. Beginning in January 2010 and planned for completion in April 2012, the Senegal infrastructure project, comprising 120 km of bitumen roads, 65 km of tracks and 16 km of urban works, aims at the rehabilitation of the Saint Louis – Rosso/Richard toll road, which provides access to two airports and other areas of urban expansion as well as rural development.
In order to ensure the completion of the project within the planned schedule and budget, AGEROUTE (http://www.aatr.sn/), the agency responsible for the implementation of construction, maintenance and repair of the road networks in Senegal under the authority of the government body DDI (Direction de la Dette et de l’Investissement), sought a reliable third-party inspection and testing company.
In January 2010, SGS Industrial Services (http://www.sgs.com/industrial) was awarded a contract to conduct specialist third-party services for the guidance and supervision of the road works during the construction phase of the project. SGS will also assist AGEROUTE if needed during the period of guarantee (12 months after the end of construction phase) until the final approval of the road works.
To coordinate this massive project, a team of sixteen engineers, technicians and other support staff will be permanently present on site for the supervision of the road works and laboratory tests throughout the duration of the project.
