Since entering the site, the project team has demonstrated high professionalism and construction efficiency, and has completed a series of preliminary work including the construction of the project camp road, control and measurement, camp construction, mixing plant installation and construction equipment entry. The professionalism and rapid progress of the Sichuan Road and Bridge team in the construction process have been highly appreciated by the owners and Tanzanian governments at all levels, laying a solid foundation for the company's further development in the Tanzanian market.
