Central African Republic Waterways

Factbook > Countries > Central African Republic > Transportation

Waterways: 2,800 km (the primary navigable river is the Ubangi, which joins the River Congo; it was the traditional route for the export of products because it connected with the Congo-Ocean railway at Brazzaville; because of the warfare on both sides of the River Congo from 1997, however, routes through Cameroon became preferred by importers and exporters) (2011)

Definition: This entry gives the total length of navigable rivers, canals, and other inland bodies of water.
