Runji, Justin2015-03-102015-03-102015-01https://hdl.handle.net/10986/21573This working paper summarizes the key findings of the African Transport Policy Performance Review, carried out by SSATP in selected Anglophone and Francophone countries in 2013. It highlights the performance of transport policies focusing on the main transportation modes, excluding maritime and aviation, and is augmented by outcomes of related work carried out mainly by SSATP and the World Bank. The key objective is to convey the salient messages, and to point out the need for more transformational and pragmatic transport policy objectives and strategies, in an effort to enhance the efficiency and competitiveness of the sector. The paper addresses some fundamental policy issues, that affect transport performance in Sub-Saharan African countries and is intended for transport sector policy level decision-makers.en-USCC BY 3.0 IGOACCESSIBILITYACCESSIBILITY INDEXACCOUNTABILITYAIRAIR POLLUTIONASSET MANAGEMENTAUTONOMOUS ROAD AGENCYAUTONOMYBETTER TRANSPORTBETTER TRANSPORT INFRASTRUCTUREBORDER CROSSINGBORDER CROSSINGSBORDER INFRASTRUCTUREBRIDGESCAPACITY BUILDINGCARGOCARRIERSCIVIL ENGINEERSCLIMATE CHANGECONCESSIONSCRASH FATALITYCRASH FATALITY RATEDEBTDEDICATED ROADDOMESTIC TRAFFICDRIVERSEMPLOYMENTFATALITIESFINANCIAL BURDENFINANCIAL PERFORMANCEFINANCING OF ROADSFRAMEWORKFREIGHTFREIGHT FORWARDERSFREIGHT MOVEMENTFREIGHT TRAFFICFUELFUEL LEVIESGREENHOUSE GASGREENHOUSE GAS EMISSIONSHIGH TRANSPORTHIGHWAYHIGHWAY MAINTENANCEHIGHWAYSHUMAN RESOURCE MANAGEMENTIMPACT OF TRANSPORTINCOMEINFORMATION DISSEMINATIONINFRASTRUCTURE DEVELOPMENTINFRASTRUCTURE IMPROVEMENTSINFRASTRUCTURE INVESTMENTINFRASTRUCTURE PROJECTSINTERNATIONAL TRANSPORTINTERURBAN ROADINTERURBAN ROADSISLAMIC DEVELOPMENT BANKLANDLORD PORTLEGAL FRAMEWORKMAIN ROADSMANDATESMARGINAL TRAFFICMARITIME TRANSPORTMODAL SHIFTMODAL TRANSPORTATIONMULTIMODAL TRANSPORTPASSENGERPASSENGER RAILPASSENGER SERVICESPASSENGER TRAFFICPAVED ROADSPAVEMENTPAVEMENT CONDITIONSPOLICEPORT AUTHORITYPORT CONCESSIONSPORT OF ENTRYPORT SERVICESPORTSPRIVATE OPERATORSPRIVATIZATIONPRODUCTIVITYPROFIT MARGINSPROFITABILITYPUBLIC EXPENDITURESPUBLIC TRANSPORTPUBLIC TRANSPORT SECTORRAILRAIL CONCESSIONSRAIL INFRASTRUCTURERAIL SECTORRAIL TRANSPORTRAILWAYRAILWAY COMPANIESRAILWAY SECTORRAILWAYSRECAPITALIZATIONRECONSTRUCTIONREGIONAL TRANSITREGIONAL TRANSPORTREGULATORY FRAMEWORKRESOURCE ALLOCATIONREVENUE MOBILIZATIONRISK FACTORSROADROAD ACCESSROAD AGENCIESROAD CONDITIONSROAD CONGESTIONROAD CONSTRUCTIONROAD DETERIORATIONROAD DEVELOPMENTROAD EXPANSIONROAD FINANCINGROAD FUNDROAD FUND REVENUESROAD FUNDSROAD INFRASTRUCTUREROAD INVESTMENTROAD INVESTMENTSROAD MAINTENANCEROAD MAINTENANCE INITIATIVEROAD MANAGEMENTROAD NETWORKROAD NETWORKSROAD REHABILITATIONROAD SAFETYROAD SECTORROAD TRANSPORTROAD USERROAD USER CHARGESROAD USERSROADSROLLING STOCKRURAL ACCESSRURAL ACCESSIBILITYRURAL ROADRURAL ROAD INVESTMENTRURAL ROADSRURAL TRANSPORTSAFETY MANAGEMENTSTRUCTURAL ADJUSTMENTSTRUCTURESTOLLSTRACKSTRAFFICTRAFFIC PERFORMANCETRAFFIC POLICYTRAFFIC VOLUMESTRANSITTRANSIT CORRIDORTRANSIT CORRIDORSTRANSPARENCYTRANSPORTTRANSPORT AUTHORITIESTRANSPORT COSTSTRANSPORT EFFICIENCYTRANSPORT EXTERNALITIESTRANSPORT FACILITATIONTRANSPORT INDICATORSTRANSPORT INFRASTRUCTURETRANSPORT MARKETTRANSPORT MODESTRANSPORT OPERATIONSTRANSPORT POLICIESTRANSPORT POLICYTRANSPORT POLICY MAKERSTRANSPORT POLICY OBJECTIVESTRANSPORT PROFESSIONALSTRANSPORT RESEARCHTRANSPORT SECTORTRANSPORT SERVICESTRANSPORT STRATEGIESTRANSPORT USERSTRANSPORTATIONTRANSPORTATION ALTERNATIVETRANSPORTATION ALTERNATIVESTRANSPORTATION COSTSTRANSPORTATION DEPARTMENTSTRANSPORTATION EFFICIENCYTRANSPORTATION INFRASTRUCTURETRANSPORTATION RESEARCHTRAVEL TIMESTRUCKINGURBAN CONGESTIONURBAN MOBILITYURBAN ROAD NETWORKURBAN TRANSPORTURBANIZATIONVEHICLEVEHICLE OPERATINGVEHICLE OPERATING COSTSVEHICLE POPULATIONVEHICULAR TRAFFICWAGES10.1596/21573
