MOBILIZE Dar es Salaam: Making space for Mobility in Booming Cities
Over the last year, Dar es Salaam has launched a series of transformative improvements to transit, cycling and walking, the most important of which is the Dar es Salaam Bus Rapid Transit (BRT) system, or DART. These efforts have made Dar es Salaam the first African city to win the prestigious Sustainable Transport Award in its 14-year history. The city will host the Mobilize Summit from 26-28 June 2018.
