Investing in a Future of Electric Public Transport in Dakar

Join us as we spotlight Dakar, Senegal, the recipient of the 2025 Sustainable Transport Award, and its debut of an all-electric BRT system which spans over 18 kilometers of corridors, 23 stations, and a fleet of 120+ articulated electric buses. The development of the system is particularly notable for its innovative financing mechanisms, bringing together development banks, government support, and private sector actors to prioritize modern, bus-based public transport. Join ITDP, infrastructure investment firm Meridiam, and Dakar’s transport authority, Conseil Exécutif des Transports Urbains Durables (CETUD), as we highlight regional progress and achievements.
