The Senegalese authorities are trying to catch up on the operational aspect of the project to build the tracks of the future Bus Rapid Transit (BRT) in Dakar, which will be entrusted to a French consortium including Meridiam.

Led by the Executive Council of Urban Transport of Dakar (Cetud), a body led by Thierno Birahim AW, this project to build the tracks of the future Dakar Rapid Transit Bus (BRT) will eventually allow passengers to use high-capacity buses running on exclusively reserved lanes between the city center and the near suburbs of Dakar.

Africa Intelligence reports that the Senegalese state has entered into negotiations with a French consortium led by the investment fund Meridiam, to determine the terms of the operating contract for the future Bus Rapid Transit (BRT) of Dakar.
The choice of the French consortium, which also includes RATP and SNCF, follows the abandonment at the end of 2019 of its Hispanic competitor, composed of the Spanish Empresa Municipal de Transportes de Madrid (EMT) and Nexcon, as well as the Peruvian Transvial, which did not submit their bid during the last stage of the s process. election.
