M6 road (Malawi)

The M6 road in Malawi is a major transportation artery that runs in a generally east-west direction across the southern part of the country. It connects significant population centers and agricultural regions, playing a crucial role in the transportation of goods and people.

The road is part of Malawi's designated Main Road network and contributes significantly to the nation's economy by facilitating trade and access to services. Its condition varies in sections, with some portions being paved and well-maintained, while others may consist of gravel or earth surfaces, particularly in more remote areas. The M6 is frequently used by both local traffic, including trucks and buses, as well as international transport vehicles traversing the region.

Its route intersects with other major roads within Malawi, providing connections to other key areas of the country and neighboring nations. Due to its importance, the M6 road is subject to ongoing maintenance and development efforts by the Malawian government and international development agencies, aimed at improving its surface, widening sections, and enhancing its overall safety. The specific length and precise routing may be subject to periodic updates as road improvements and realignments occur.
