It evaluates allocation efficiency across road-sector spending, highlights performance and planning barriers, and considers climate-change resilience for future impacts. The review also assesses whether road provision and policy intent are well targeted, identifying spatial, social, and demographic inequities. Finally, it presents findings and recommendations focused on improving efficacy and equity in public resource use.","Public Disclosure Authorized Public Disclosure Authorized  \nArgentina  \nRoad Sector Public Expenditure Review  \nAugust 2021  \nLatin America and the Caribbean Region Infrastructure Practice Group Transport Global Practice  \nAcknowledgements  \nThis report was developed by the Argentina Transport Team of The World Bank, led by Verónica Inés Raffo and her team, including Francisco Jijena Sánchez, Ignacio Sánchez D’Ocon and Andrés García Treceño.
