Dar Es Salaam's BRT (Bus Rapid Transit), a network under construction

ongoing

The first phase of the network is currently in operation. Phases 2 to 4, currently under detailed design or construction, will be financed by the African Development Bank and the World Bank. Phase 5, financed by AFD, involves the construction and commissioning of two BRT lines, comprising two 26.4-km corridors fed by 6 feeder lines, serving dense neighborhoods, hospitals, stations and universities.The project also includes the creation of bicycle lanes and the upgrading of sidewalks. The project, estimated to cost 332 million euros (including the buses, which are to be privately financed), is being piloted by the Dar Es Salaam Urban Mobility Authority (DART), which has entrusted the infrastructure work to the Tanzania Road Authority (TANROADS). Operations will be handled by a private operator recruited through a call for tenders.
