26 AFRICAN DEVELOPMENT BANK Transport in Africa & the world AfricaNorth AfricaSSA % dvping countries % world% dvping countries % world% dvping countries Population, GDP, Trade, Air transport (f), n.a. Air transport (p), n.a. Rail transport, Road transport, 2002 >24.0n.a Sea transport, Source: African Economic Outlook 2006 and various sources

27 AFRICAN DEVELOPMENT BANK Critical condition of all transport modes Road –Only 19% is paved (against 27% in lat Am & 43% in South Asia) –4% of registered vehicles, 10% of total deaths Rail –3.5% of developing passenger flows, 20% of GDP Air –Few airports with international standard –4.5% of traffic, 25% of accidents Ports –1 port operated by major company –Most are under equipped and have reached maximum capacity

28 AFRICAN DEVELOPMENT BANK Source: OECD/DAC Creditor reporting System (commitments) data aggregated by sectors : Shift in ODA to social sectors

29 AFRICAN DEVELOPMENT BANK Infrastructure is back on donors’ agenda Decline in the 1990’s of bilateral ODA, not compensated by multilateral flows –Shift of attention to poverty reduction (MDGs) –Disappointment over past experiences Renewed interest as shown by report by Commission for Africa and UN Millennium Summit Bilateral donors insist on linkage between infrastructure & poverty reduction Increased involvement of non DAC members (China, Arab countries)

30 AFRICAN DEVELOPMENT BANK PPP experiences in transport Prompted by lack of public finance and lack of access to international financial markets, although second-generation road funds and innovations like the Emerging Africa Infrastructure Fund for the private sector are helping Not full privatisation but concession & management contracts to allow better risk sharing in volatile environment Positive outcome with respect to transport service delivery, limited in the case of infrastructure Under certain conditions (high private sector stake), privatisation of infrastructure is successful (ex. toll road of Maputo corridor) In most cases, investment remains public

31 AFRICAN DEVELOPMENT BANK Money is not enough Strong regulation –Strong commitment / negotiation skills –Autonomous regulatory body (ex. Zambia) Better planning (ex. Master Plan for Greater Cairo) –Selection of projects (between the different transport means, trade-off between developing rural road networks and investing in corridors serving established higher density routes) –Integration in poverty reduction strategy & medium-term expenditure framework Community participation –Maximising employment generation and easing maintenance –Involving women Regional cooperation –Benefiting from economies of scale –Partnering with NEPAD & regional unions
