The T2 is a trunk road in Zambia. The road runs from the Tunduma border with Tanzania via Mpika, Kabwe and Lusaka to the Chirundu border with Zimbabwe.[1][2] The road is the longest route of the country, as it is approximately 1,155 kilometres (718 mi).[3][2] The route from Mpika to Kafue is a toll road.[4] The route from Tanzania to Lusaka is Zambia's Great North Road and is part of the Tanzam Highway.
For its entire route, the T2 is part of the Cape to Cairo Road. Also, the section from the T3 road junction in Kapiri Mposhi to the T1 road junction just after Kafue is part of the Walvis Bay-Ndola-Lubumbashi Development Road.[5][6][7]
