Likati River is a river of northern Democratic Republic of the Congo, a tributary of the Itimbiri River. It flows through Aketi Territory in Bas-Uele District.[1]
It was referenced in Congo Shadows by John B. Franz.[2]
At Libongo, northwest of the town of Likati, the river is crossed by a mixed-use road and railway bridge. As of 2014 the bridge was defective and dangerous for road users.[3] The railway, now defunct, was a branch of the Vicicongo line built by the Société des Chemins de Fer Vicinaux du Congo.[4]
