Road sector reform in Namibia: Institutional development issues

Worldwide, ministries of transport are being called upon to lead major transport reforms, and at the same time reform themselves to become more modern institutions and assume new and different functions and roles in the more dynamic reformed system. Designed and initiated in the early 20th century and given wide responsibility for financing and operating extensive public road networks, they became large centralized and hierarchical public bureaucracies, with cumbersome and detailed administrative rules and a permanent staff with secure civil service protections. The ministries were fragmented by many vertical programmes, which were often run as virtual fiefdoms, dependent on uncertain international donor funding
