United States Ambassador to Sierra Leone Bryan Hunt was honoured to attend the signing of a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) between the Government of Sierra Leone and U.S.-based infrastructure company Acrow Corporation, marking a significant step forward in the long-anticipated financing and construction of the Lungi Bridge. This transformative project will be delivered under a build-own-operate-transfer (BOOT) model.
With over 70 years of experience in bridge construction across more than 150 countries including projects in over 40 African nations Acrow brings world-class American technology, engineering excellence, and project management expertise to this vital infrastructure initiative.
The United States government fully supports this partnership and stands ready to facilitate its commercial success. This collaboration exemplifies our shared commitment to sustainable development, economic growth, and enhanced connectivity for the people of Sierra Leone.
