Roads Directorate

The Roads Directorate was established as a corporate body by the Roads Directorate Act of 2010. The Directorate was established mainly for better service delivery and more effective and efficient management of the road network. The Directorate is responsible for construction, upgrading, rehabilitation and maintenance of primary, secondary, tertiary and other roads as well as bridges on the Lesotho road network.

The Roads Directorate was created in response to the reform of the roads sub-sector. It was formed by the amalgamation and restructuring of the former Roads Branch (RB) and the former Department of Rural Roads (DRR).
