# Africa Road Infrastructure Analysis
## Overview
This project analyzes road infrastructure quality across selected African countries using the FRST road dataset. The goal is to evaluate infrastructure reliability, accessibility risk, and governance-related indicators by examining paved and unpaved road distributions.
This analysis was prepared as part of the Open Gov Africa data exploration initiative.
