Tanzania is undergoing a massive transformation in infrastructure, and at the heart of this transformation is the Tanzania National Roads Agency (TANROADS). Tasked with the maintenance and development of the nation’s trunk and regional roads, TANROADS plays a pivotal role in enhancing connectivity and promoting economic growth across the country. Through its ongoing road development projects in the Dodoma Region, TANROADS is pushing boundaries and laying the groundwork for Tanzania's future, one kilometer at a time.
In line with its mission to improve road networks and ensure smooth transportation, TANROADS Dodoma has announced a series of large-scale road projects aimed at upgrading key routes to bitumen standard, providing safer and more reliable roads to residents and businesses alike. To support these ambitious efforts, the agency is now seeking qualified Tanzanians to join their team for key roles, including Senior Engineer (Highway Engineer) and CAD Technician. These positions are essential to the successful execution of the road construction projects and offer a unique opportunity for professionals in civil engineering to make a significant impact.
Transforming Dodoma’s Road Networks
The Dodoma Region is poised to become a transportation hub, thanks to major projects that TANROADS is spearheading. The projects include the upgrading of:
- Ntyuka Jet to Mvumi-Kikombo Jet Road (76.0 km),
- Chololo Mapinduzi (TPDF HQ) 5 km Roads, and
- Kongwa Jet – Ngambi – Mpwapwa Road (32.0 km), among others.
These critical upgrades will not only improve accessibility but also open up economic opportunities by providing better roads for both rural and urban populations. The construction of these roads to bitumen standard means smoother travel, reduced wear on vehicles, and a more efficient transportation network across the region.
