He built a large section of the highway by forcing individual villages along the coast to construct and maintain a section. After Papua New Guinea gained independence (1975) the Highway was renamed again, this time after Franz Boluminski who was the German District Officer from 1910 until the First World War. Originally named Kaiser-Wilhelm-Chaussee during the German protectorate, it was renamed in 1921 into East Coast Road. From Kavieng it is a sealed road for around 120 km until Bol village, and from there it has a crushed white coral road surface. It runs from the provincial capital of Kavieng for 193 km down the east coast of the island to Namatanai. The Boluminski Highway is the main land transportation route on the island of New Ireland in Papua New Guinea. Several Japanese and Taiwanese projects have contributed to rebuilding or replacement of important bridges In 2006 the eastern section of the highway (Lae-Goroka) was resurfaced by the Australian government AusAid Program. The other branch goes to Enga province and its capital of Wabag before ending at the mining town of Porgera. A southern branch continues on to the Southern Highlands province and its capital of Mendi before going on to Tari. It continues through to the provincial capital of Mount Hagen and then at a village called Togoba, it splits. After Kundiawa the highway reaches the Wahgi valley, which marks the start of the Western Highlands Province. From here it travels up and then over the 2,478 m high Daulo Pass and crosses into Simbu Province and through to its capital of Kundiawa. It passes over the wall of Yonki Dam and then travels through the towns of Kainantu and Henganofi to the provincial capital, Goroka. From the Markham Valley the Highlands Highway runs up and over the approximately 1500 metre high Kassam Pass and into the Eastern Highlands Province. A branch continues through the Ramu Valley in Madang Province and ends at the coast at the provincial capital of Madang. The highway begins in Lae and travels through the Markham Valley. It is also notorious, particularly in the Highlands region, for being the place of numerous armed hold-ups and robberies committed by local bandits called rascals. It connects several major cities and is vital for the movement of people and goods between the populous Highlands region and the coast.įor most of its length the Highlands Highway is no more than a single carriageway two-lane road which is often hindered by potholes and land slips. Known as the Okuk Highway is the main land highway in Papua New Guinea. The Kiunga-Tabubil Highway is a privately maintained road that links highland communities in the Western Province. A highway linking Wewak in East Sepik Province and Vanimo in West Sepik Province was completed in September 2007. The Boluminski Highway links Kavieng and Namatanai in New Ireland Province. The longest road in the country is the Highlands Highway which links Lae and Madang to the Highlands region. The capital Port Moresby is not linked by road to any of the other major towns. Of some 19,600 km of roads in 2002, only 686 km were paved. Major population centers are linked chiefly by air and sea, although road construction has increased to supplement these expensive means of transport. Here I will post list of contributors, which helps to created documentation and create bug fixes.Transportation is a major problem in Papua New Guinea because of the difficult terrain. Please don't hesitate to post me a comment about above or other functionality that might be added.
