Blankespoor, Brian | Dasgupta, Susmita | Wheeler, David | Laplante, Benoit
The objectives of the Urban Development Project for Djibouti are: (i) to improve the living conditions of the urban poor in the city of Djibouti; and (ii) to strengthen the absorptive capacity of the key agencies involved in the urban sector. Specifically, the project calls for: (a) upgrading and drainage works in the Old Wards to alleviate stormwater damage and provide protection from flooding of all low lying areas. Roads, water distribution, fire hydrants and refuse collection would also be included; (b) in Balbala, the project includes upgrading of a squatter settlement. This involves provision of roads, public lighting, refuse collection and the construction of a market; (c) in salines ouest, this undertaking involves a site and service development as a joint venture with the Societe Immobiliere de Djibouti (SID) on land owned by them. The project would finance the cost of the off-site and on-site infrastructure. Further, the project would fund; (d) institutional support to the Land Office, the District of Djibouti, SID, Caisse de Developpement de Djibouti, and a small project management unit; and as well as (e) housing credit to improve existing homes and the construction of new housing units in the target areas.
