Abidjan-Lagos Trade and Transport Facilitation Project—PID

Description

The objective of the program is to reduce trade and transport barriers in the ports and on the roads along the Abidjan-Lagos coastal corridor. The total cost of the program is estimated at about US$340 million. The regional program will cover five countries: Côte d’Ivoire, Ghana,Togo, Benin, and Nigeria, and will be tailored to countries’ conditions. The program will include two phases: the first phase (under APL1, for an estimated cost of about US$258 million) in Ghana, Togo, Benin and Nigeria; and the second phase (under APL2, for an estimated cost of about US$82 million) in Côte d’Ivoire. The triggers for the launching of the second phase, estimated to start within one year from the first phase will be: (i) setting-up of an operational project coordination unit with staff and equipment; and (ii) availability of an agreed detailed design and related safeguards documents for the improvement of the road corridor between Abidjan and Noe.
