Department of Works & HIGHWAYS

We connect PNG now to build our future

The Department of Works & Highways (DOW) is the Papua New Guinea government’s implementing agency for infrastructure in the country.

It is responsible for Connect PNG 2020-2040, a 20- year transport infrastructure development strategy.

The aim of Connect PNG is to maintain, rehabilitate and construct a strategic national road network that will provide the following benefits:

• Promote agricultural and other rural-based economic activities, through improved market access.

• Reduce the cost of travel through increased national access to safe and reliable road transport and reduce high reliance on aviation and maritime transport. Contact Department of Works & Highways, P.O. Box 1108, BOROKO 111, National Capital District, Papua New Guinea www.works.gov.pg
