decision/analysis partners of Vienna, VA
has been awarded a contract by the Government of Gabon to study transportation
infrastructure needs for Gabon's national parks. The study is funded by a
grant from the U.S. Trade and Development Agency to the Government of Gabon.
Gabon, located on the coast of West Africa, established a system of national
parks covering ten percent of its land mass two years ago under the leadership
of its president El Hadj Omar Bongo. Gabonese forests, beaches and mangroves
are renowned for their great diversity in plant species and wildlife. A
transportation strategy for air strips and access roads is needed at this time
to induce sustainable eco-tourism, and encourage visitors to experience several
natural settings within a single trip.
The study will include five key national parks: Loango, Mayumba, Lope, Ivindo
and Plateaux Bateke. The decision/analysis partners team includes a
transportation planning specialist, a civil engineer experienced in African
construction, a local engineer and a consultant from Montgomery Consulting
Group of Winter Park, FL, which specializes in small airport and low density
aviation consulting.
