The AICD will provide a baseline against which future improvements in infrastructure services can be measured, making it possible to monitor the results achieved from donor support. It should also provide a more solid empirical foundation for prioritizing investments and designing policy reforms in the infrastructure sectors in Africa. The AICD is based on an unprecedented effort to collect detailed economic and technical data on the infrastructure sectors in Africa. The project has produced a series of original reports on public expenditure, spending needs, and sector performance in each of the main infrastructure sectors, including energy, information and communication technologies, irrigation, transport, and water and sanitation. The first phase of the AICD focused on 24 countries that together account for 85 percent of the gross domestic product, population, and infrastructure aid flows of Sub-Saharan Africa. Under a second phase of the project, coverage is expanding to include as many of the additional African countries as possible.Cette étude fait partie du Diagnostic des infrastructures nationales en Afrique (AICD), un projet conçu pour élargir la connaissance mondiale de l’infrastructure physique de l’Afrique. L’AICD constituera une base de référence par rapport à laquelle les futures améliorations de l’infrastructure pourront être mesurées, de façon à pouvoir suivre les résultats obtenus avec le support des bailleurs de fonds. Elle devrait également constituer une base empirique plus solide pour la détermination des priorités d’investissement et la conception des réformes des politiques dans le secteur des infrastructures en Afrique.CC BY 3.0 IGOACCESSIBILITYACCOUNTABILITYACCOUNTINGACCOUNTING SYSTEMSADMINISTRATIVE REFORMAGGLOMERATIONAIRAIR SERVICEAIR TRAFFICAIR TRANSPORTAIRPORTAIRPORT CONCESSIONSAIRPORT HUBSAIRPORTSASSET MAINTENANCEAUDITINGAUDITSAUTONOMYAVERAGE DAILY TRAFFICBLOCK TARIFFBORDER CROSSINGSBOTTLENECKSBUDGET EXECUTIONBUDGETARY PROCESSESCABLECABLE SYSTEMCAPITAL EXPENDITURECAPITAL EXPENDITURESCAPITAL FLOWSCAPITAL INVESTMENTCAPITALSCARGOCARGO HANDLINGCENTRAL GOVERNMENT BUDGETSCITIESCLIMATE CHANGECOMMERCIAL TARIFFSCONCESSIONCONTAINER TERMINALCONTAINER TERMINAL CONCESSIONSCONTAINER TERMINALSCORPORATE GOVERNANCECOST CENTERSCOST RECOVERYCOSTS OF POWERDEFICITSDIESELDISTRIBUTION LOSSESDOMESTIC INFLATIONECONOMIC COSTSECONOMIC DEVELOPMENTECONOMIC GROWTHECONOMIES OF SCALEELECTRICITYELECTRICITY SECTORELECTRICITY SERVICESELECTRICITY SUPPLYEXCISE TAXESEXTERNAL FINANCINGEXTRABUDGETARY FUNDSFINANCIAL DATAFINANCIAL MANAGEMENTFREIGHTFUELGENERATIONGENERATION CAPACITYGOVERNMENT BUDGETGROSS DOMESTIC PRODUCTGROWTH RATESHIGHWAYHOUSEHOLD BUDGETSINDEPENDENT REGULATIONINFRASTRUCTURE ASSETSINFRASTRUCTURE CHARGESINFRASTRUCTURE COSTSINFRASTRUCTURE DEVELOPMENTINFRASTRUCTURE FINANCEINFRASTRUCTURE FINANCINGINFRASTRUCTURE FUNDINGINFRASTRUCTURE INVESTMENTINFRASTRUCTURE INVESTMENTSINFRASTRUCTURE POLICYINFRASTRUCTURE PROVISIONINFRASTRUCTURE SECTORINFRASTRUCTURE SERVICE PROVIDERSINFRASTRUCTURE SERVICESINFRASTRUCTURE SPENDINGINFRASTRUCTURESINSPECTIONINVESTMENT FUNDSINVESTMENT PROGRAMINVESTMENT TARGETSLEASE CONTRACTLEASE CONTRACTSLEVIESLICENSESLOW TARIFFSMANAGEMENT CONTRACTSMARKET CONCENTRATIONMIGRATIONMINISTRIES OF FINANCEMULTIMODAL TRANSPORTNATIONAL INFRASTRUCTURENETWORK INFRASTRUCTURENETWORK TRAFFICO&MOPERATING COSTSOUTSOURCINGPEER REVIEWPERFORMANCE CONTRACTSPERFORMANCE INCENTIVESPERFORMANCE INDICATORSPOPULATION DENSITIESPOPULATION DENSITYPOPULATION GROWTHPORT CONCESSIONSPOWERPOWER DISTRIBUTIONPOWER PLANTSPOWER PURCHASEPOWER PURCHASE AGREEMENTSPOWER SECTORPOWER SYSTEMSPREPAYMENTPRICE CHANGESPRIVATE CAPITALPRIVATE FINANCINGPRIVATE OPERATORSPRIVATE SECTORPRIVATE SECTOR PARTICIPATIONPRIVATIZATIONPRODUCTIVITYPROFIT MARGINSPROVISION OF INFRASTRUCTUREPSPPUBLICPUBLIC ENTERPRISESPUBLIC EXPENDITUREPUBLIC GOODSPUBLIC INVESTMENTPUBLIC INVESTMENT IN INFRASTRUCTUREPUBLIC SECTORPUBLIC SECTOR PERFORMANCEPUBLIC SERVICEPUBLIC SPENDINGPUBLIC TRANSPORTATIONRAILRAIL MARKETRAIL NETWORKRAIL NETWORKSRAIL SYSTEMSRAILROADRAILROAD CONCESSIONSRAILROADSRAILWAYRAILWAY NETWORKRAILWAYSREGIONAL INFRASTRUCTURERESIDENTIAL CUSTOMERSREVENUE COLLECTIONROADROAD CONCESSIONSROAD CONDITIONSROAD DESIGNSROAD EXPENDITURESROAD INFRASTRUCTUREROAD MAINTENANCEROAD NETWORKROAD NETWORKSROAD PROJECTSROAD SECTORROAD TRANSPORTROAD USERROAD USER CHARGESROADSROUTESROYALTY PAYMENTSRUNWAYRURAL INFRASTRUCTURESAFETYSANITATIONSANITATION SECTORSANITATION SERVICESSAVINGSSERVICE EXPANSIONSERVICE PROVIDERSUBSIDIARYSUPERVISORY AGENCIESTAXTELECOMMUNICATIONSTELEPHONE SERVICESTENDERSTOLLTRAFFICTRAFFIC DENSITYTRAFFIC FLOWSTRAFFIC GROWTHTRAFFIC VOLUMESTRANSITTRANSIT CORRIDORSTRANSIT SYSTEMTRANSMISSION LINESTRANSPARENCYTRANSPORTTRANSPORT CORRIDORSTRANSPORT COSTSTRANSPORT INFRASTRUCTURETRANSPORT MARKETTRANSPORT POLICYTRANSPORT SECTORTRANSPORT SERVICESTRANSPORTSURBAN GROWTHURBANIZATIONUTILITIESUTILITY SERVICESWATER DISTRIBUTIONWATER RESOURCE MANAGEMENTWATER SERVICEWATER SERVICESWATER SUPPLYWATER TARIFFSWATER UTILITIESWEALTHWorld Bank10.1596/978-0-8213-8041-3
