Fighting traffic congestion in Kinshasa: In Paris, Daniel Bumba strengthens technical partnerships to modernize the urban transport system

Kinshasa Governor Daniel Bumba Lubaki is in Paris meeting with firms specializing in urban transport and mobility. He held discussions with Transecor, which has contributed expertise to transport projects in Dakar, including the Regional Express Train and Bus Rapid Transit. The visit follows a Kinshasa urban mobility workshop, after which the World Bank offered to support implementation of the recommendations. While major projects such as ring roads, Metrokin, BRT and an urban train are pending, a traffic regulation brigade has been deployed to ease congestion.
