He stated that well-maintained roads are crucial for improving public mobility, reducing distribution costs, and increasing regional competitiveness. "These 32 strategic road developments are not just about building infrastructure, but are a long-term investment for NTT's future," Lena said.

The completed road segments are distributed across key areas, including Timor Island, Flores, Sumba, Alor, Lembata, Rote Ndao, Sabu Raijua, and Kupang City. Notable upgraded sections include Bondokodi-Waitabula, Keliting-Wini-Sakato, and Betun-Motamasin, among others.
