Bong Town

Notably, the company constructed and maintained one of Liberia's main rail lines to the remote site to ship the iron ore from the mountains.

As of June 2012, the road had about 1/5 of its total distance covered with pavement with one small bridge under active construction just outside Kakata.

There was also a smaller British School for the children of English speaking employees.

Bong Town is connected by a partially paved road to Kakata and a rail line to the Freeport of Monrovia.

The town is directly situated on a small iron ore-rich mountain range.
