This working paper presents the findings
of "A Study of Urban Transport Institutional, Financial
and Regulatory Frameworks in Large Sub-Saharan African
Cites" and it was commissioned by the Sub-Saharan
Africa Transport Policy Program (SSATP). The study objective
was to review the institutional, financial and regulatory
frameworks for the provision of urban transport in four
selected cities, Dakar (Senegal), Douala (Cameroon), Kampala
(Uganda) and Nairobi (Kenya). The specific focus was to
examine: (a) the structure, process and performance of the
existing institutions and financing arrangements; and (b)
operational practices of public and private bus operators.
The study has examined the existing institutional
arrangements in the four cities and identified opportunities
and constraints for policy reform. The general focus is on
identifying mechanisms suitable in different cultural and
political environment to organize planning, regulation and
monitoring of urban transport services. The study has
identified a phased program of improvements required in the
urban transport systems, with the short-term measures
focused on traffic management, overloading controls, vehicle
inspections; medium-term measures focused on a gradual
consolidation of the informal sector bus operators into
small or medium-sized enterprises, introduction of a formal
route structure and licensing system and long-term measures
focused on institutional restructuring supported by
appropriate legislation, funding and technical support. |
