| Project Detail |
The operation concerns the first phase of the restructuring of Dakars bus network. It covers 14 priority lines and includes the acquisition of 380 natural gas buses, the construction of two depots, the installation of ticketing and network management and control systems, as well as the development of roads on a total length of 30 km.
Objectives
The project should improve the quality of public transport provision in Dakar. Due to a better prioritization of the public transport network and the modernization of the bus fleet, its expected results are in terms of savings in travel time and waiting times for users, less road congestion, improved accessibility to places of study and work, better environmental performance, particularly in terms of reducing polluting emissions, greenhouse gases and road accidents and, ultimately, improved operational efficiency with expected lower operating costs.
