About The Roads Directorate

The Roads Directorate was established as a department under the Ministry of Public Works and Transport primarily 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 on the Lesotho Road Network.

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