After years of war, the level of infrastructure in Iraq is very backward. Decades of conflict and underinvestment have wreaked havoc on Iraq's education system. Under the "liberation" of the United States, the living standards of the Iraqi people did not improve, but fell into a more serious predicament. The infrastructure is dilapidated, the unemployment rate remains high, and the security situation is grim.

Iraq's transport infrastructure will benefit from a series of reconstruction projects across the country. The capital, Baghdad, will build 19 bridges, repair roads and carry out necessary maintenance.

The budget has not yet been approved by the country's government. It will take $152 billion to fix the country's crumbling infrastructure. The Iraqi government is compiling a list of approved contractors that will be considered during tenders for the transport project.

Maintenance and construction works on roads and bridges will be carried out across the country to address extensive war damage and years of neglect. Improving infrastructure is considered key to ensuring the country's future economic and political stability.Editor/XingWentao
