2.5.1 Governance and Regulation There are three main pieces of legislation that govern transport matters in Belize. Transport by land is governed by the Motor Vehicles and Road Traffic Act, Chapter 230 of 2000. The Belize Land Transportation Authority (BLTA) is the government agency in charge of its enforcement under the umbrella of the Ministry of Transport, Communications and National Emergency Management. Transport by air is governed by the Belize Airports Authority Act, Chapter 238 of 2000, and the Civil Aviation Act, Chapter 239 of 2000. The Ministry of Tourism, Civil Aviation and Culture is the government agency in charge of their enforcement. Finally, the transport of goods by sea is governed by the Carriage of Goods by Sea Act, Chapter 248 of 2000. The Ministry of Transport, Communications and National Emergency Management is the agency in charge of its enforcement. 2.5.2 Road Transport In 2008, a new regulatory body was formed to improve Belize’s growing transportation industry. The new agency, called Belize Land Transportation Authority (BLTA), has legal powers under the Belize Land Transportation Authority Act of 2007. This autonomous body does not depend on government revenue and sustains itself. The BLTA generates its revenue from road permits, operation of the various bus terminals across the country and revenues generated from ticket fines among other things. It may issue road permits with no ministerial interference. Outdated transport infrastructure, particularly roads and ports, is a factor inhibiting commercial and industrial growth. Belize’s highway system has 3,281 km of roads. Of these, 573 km are main roads or highways, 765 km are secondary roads, and 1,943 km are rural roads. About 658 km of these roads are paved, 1,423 km are gravel, 1,000 km are marl, and 200 km are earth. An extensive construction program funded by the government, starting in the early 1980s, as well as improvement projects funded by international aid, has led to significant improvements in the road network. Paved highways connect most major urban settlements and border areas. However, the situation is difficult in rural areas, where many roads remain unpaved or are made of gravel or marl. Only 17% of roads are paved. This percentage is low even when compared with other countries of the region. In addition, Inadequate funding for maintenance has caused deterioration in road conditions. This not only turns transportation of goods more expensive, but it is likely to result in more costly road reconstruction programs. 24
