Worth knowing about Kakata
- Kakata is the capital of Margibi County, and Liberia's main international airport sits in the same county: Roberts International is near the town of Harbel, about 2 miles (3.2 km) northeast of the runway.
- Kakata is roughly 55 km northeast of Monrovia on the paved Monrovia to Kakata highway, while Roberts International is about 35 miles (56 km) out from Monrovia on the same side of the capital.
- Roberts International's current passenger terminal was dedicated in December 2017 and became operational by September 2019, so older descriptions of the arrivals building are out of date.
- Feeder roads connecting the Firestone rubber plantations to Kakata were rehabilitated and commissioned in August 2025.
