Ghana Urban Mobility & Accessibility Project Presentation video

Since 2017, the MLGDRD has received support from the Swiss State Secretariat for Economic Affairs (SECO) as part of the Ghana Urban Mobility and Accessibility Project (GUMAP). Transitec has been heavily involved in providing technical assistance to the Ministry, the municipalities of Greater Accra, the national technical agencies and their partners in order to better analyse mobility conditions in the Ghanaian capital and identify actions that can be taken in terms of traffic management on the one hand and improving public transport on the other. The GUMAP project has given rise to a number of specific studies on traffic management at both metropolitan and more local levels, the professionalisation of paratransit, the governance of mobility, and so on. In addition, a great deal of attention has been paid to training issues, in particular through the development of a master's degree at the Kwame Nkrumah University of Science and Technology (KNUST) in partnership with the Ecole Polytechnique Fédérale de Lausanne (EPFL).
