The road network Tarred roads link the major centers of economic activity and provide access to Congo-Kinshasa, Namibia and Zambia. Many bridges, destroyed during fighting, are yet to be reconstructed. There is an added danger of stumbling on land mines when traveling on unfrequented roads. The public transport system has been said to be unreliable and has been suspended in some regions. The economy continues to surfer because of poor ill-maintained roads.
Air travel is currently the most preferred and safest.
The rail network Benguela Railway is the longest in the country and extends from the Lobito coast to the Congo border. Benguela Railway often does not function to the east of Huambo. Land mines can be found in most of the rail network making usage dangerous. Other railways, including the Luanda Railway, the Namibe Railway and the Amboim Railway, have functioned episodically since independence. Angola has a total of 2,952 kilometres of rail.
