Myanmar is to benefit from a new expressway project, which will boost transport and economic development. The expressway will run between the Thilawa Special Economic Zone (SEZ) and the Yangon-Mandalay Expressway, worldhighways.com reported.

A portion of the funding required will be provided by the Japan International Cooperation Agency (JICA). Japan will also assist with technical help for the work.

The project is being managed by the Yangon City Development Committee, which is also sourcing funding for the work.
