The study will help to undertake detailed design work of the new expressway. It is being undertaken by ERA’s own staff.  The Southern Nation, Nationalities and Peoples’ Regional State capital, Hawassa, is 200Km from Mojo Town. Mojo is 73Km east of Addis Ababa. The Addis-Adama toll road, which is Ethiopia’s first expressway, is currently under construction by China Communications Construction Co (CCCC) at a cost of USD 612 million.
