For years, the stretch of road linking Bayota to Sinfra has been a symbol of the daily ordeal faced by its users. More than just a strip of land, this road is a vital economic artery for the region. Today, thanks to the personal commitment of the Honorable Koné Issa, Member of Parliament for Greater Ouragahio, this strategic route is poised for revival.

The ordeal of users and economic actors

Deep potholes, impassable mudslides, and stagnant water: the advanced state of disrepair paralyzed traffic, especially during the rainy season. This deterioration had serious consequences for the entire community.

1. For carriers: Repeated breakdowns, premature wear of vehicles and soaring maintenance costs.
2. For farmers and traders: Critical delays in getting harvests to market and suffocating additional financial burdens.

However, the landscape is changing. For the past few days, construction equipment has been moving in.

100% personal funding and a sustainable technical approach

Sensitive to the heartfelt pleas of his constituents, MP Koné Issa has made a strong decision: to finance the entire project from his own resources, for a total amount of 50 million CFA francs.

To guarantee the structure's longevity, the technical teams began with a crucial phase: managing drainage . Heavy machinery created drainage channels to remove runoff water, the primary cause of the road's deterioration. Without this preparatory step, any resurfacing work would have been futile.

“This road is essential for our people. It allows them to travel, transport crops, and boost trade. Faced with this urgent situation, I have mobilized 50 million FCFA of my own resources. My objective is clear: to provide lasting relief to the people and improve their daily lives.” — Honorable Koné Issa , Member of Parliament for Greater Ouragahio.

A huge relief for the community

On the ground, the progress of the work is generating a real surge of hope. Testimonies from local residents and road professionals all point to the same satisfaction.

1. From the residents' perspective: "This road caused us enormous suffering during the rainy season. Today, we are finally seeing the first signs of change," says a resident of Bayota.
2. From the transport operators' perspective: Bamba Yaya, a "Massa" minibus driver, agrees: "Our vehicles were deteriorating and the journeys lasted for hours. The initial water drainage work is very encouraging. We hope the road resurfacing will be completed."
3. Regarding transport management: Kamagaté Amara, station manager for the Bayota–Sinfra line, emphasizes the logistical impact: “This is the core of our business. When the road is blocked, the entire local economy is paralyzed. This private initiative directly addresses a public need.”

Much more than a construction project: a lever for development

Beyond the technical rehabilitation, the restoration of this road will trigger a positive dynamic for the entire region. A smooth-flowing road guarantees better mobility, lower transport costs, boosted trade, and closer ties between communities.

By investing his own money massively, the Honorable Koné Issa is making a strong statement about local development and is proving that political commitment can translate into concrete and immediate actions in the service of the general interest.
