Light Vehicle Convoy from Khartoum to Juba REPORT - April 2007
In April of 2007, UNJLC organized and led a light vehicle convoy of six vehicles with twelve participants (two UNJLC vehicles, two WFP vehicles, one UNDSS vehicle and one War Child vehicle) from Khartoum to Juba. This convoy was a preliminary step in the South Sudan Resident Coordinator’s Office’s on-going efforts to explore the potential for overland travel throughout South Sudan in the Dry and Wet seasons, in order to increase the efficiency and cost of operations in the region. The convoy’s objectives were to transport additional vehicles to Juba facilities, conduct a preliminary survey of overland travel options between northern and southern Sudan, assess limitations on infrastructure and logistics, conduct GPS road mapping, and perform a basic security assessment.
