TRANSPORTATION

Roads:

In 2002, Haiti had 4,160 km (2,585 mi) of roads, 1,011 km (628 mi) of which were paved. The country's road system was the most important part of the transportation system. In 1989 there were more than 3,700 kilometers of roads: 17 percent were paved; 27 percent were gravel or were otherwise improved; and 56 percent were unimproved and were generally impassible following heavy rains.

Besides the paved streets in the capital, there were only two paved highways, which linked the northern and the southern regions of the country. National Highway One (Duarte Highway) extended north from Port-au-Prince to Cap Ha?tien via the coastal towns of Montrouis and Gona?ves. National Highway Two proceeded south from the capital to Les Cayes.

Railroads:

In the past, Haiti used railroads, but today they are not used. There is about 40 km of single track, privately owned, industrial line. The track gauge was either 760 mm or 762 mm gauge. Unfortunately, it was closed in early 1990s.

Aviation:

In 2001 there were an estimated 12 airports, two of which had paved runways. Domestic air service is supplied by the privately owned Air Haiti, which connects principal cities on regular scheduled flights. An international airport at Port-au-Prince opened in 1965; the other international airport is at Cap Haitien. Carriers serving Port-au-Prince are ALM, American Airlines, Air Canada, Canada 3000, Caribintair, Tropical Airways, Haiti International airlines, Air France, and COPA.
