- leadership of President Léopold Sédar Senghor.
Despite facing challenges, including economic difficulties and occasional protests, Senegal remained one of the more politically stable and progressive countries in Africa.
Attracting foreign investment, especially in industries such as telecommunications, energy, and Infrastructure development. Senegal also made significant success in education and healthcare, contributing to an improved quality of life for many Senegalese citizens.
In this video I take you to an emerging city in Senegal that is being transformed into a modern smart city purposely built for the challenges of the future. But first let's have a quick look at the capital city Dakar to see what can be expected of the new city.
Later in the video we will also look at how Senegal is actively modernising its railway, road transportation infrastructure and developing its tourism industry.

Situated about 30 kilometers southeast of Dakar, the capital city of Senegal, Diamniadio is part of the Senegalese government's ambitious plan to promote regional development. The development project aims to create a smart city that will serve as an economic hub and address various infrastructural challenges faced by the capital city dakar.
Diamniadio is envisioned to become a major economic center for Senegal. The city is planned to host various industrial zones, technology parks, and commercial areas, attracting local and foreign investors. The goal is to foster economic growth and create job opportunities, reducing the urban-rural migration to Dakar.
Diamniadio is also intended to be a new administrative center. The government plans to move various ministries and public institutions to the city to ease the burden on Dakar and promote better governance and accessibility.
The city's development takes into account sustainable practices, incorporating green spaces, renewable energy solutions, and eco-friendly buildings to minimize environmental impact.
A modern city requires efficient transportation and infrastructure systems. Diamniadio is designed with well-planned roads, public transportation networks, and modern amenities to support the growing population and business activities.
The Train Express Regional (TER) in Senegal is revolutionizing the country's railway system and improving connectivity within the Dakar metropolitan area and the new city. A flagship project of the Emerging Senegal Plan - the country’s ambitious roadmap to prosperity
With an initial daily capacity of 115,000 passengers, the train provides a reliable, efficient, and environmentally friendly alternative to road transportation, reducing traffic congestion and air pollution in Dakar. Commuters can reach the suburbs from the center of Dakar in less than 10 minutes; travel time to the new city Diamniadio via a non-stop train is about 20 minutes. Passengers arrive three times as fast as in a taxi and pay a third of the price.This express train is an express route to progress and development in Senegal. More than six million passengers have used the train since it came into service.
Another development in Senegal that is taking mobility to the next level is the Dakar's BRT Mass Transit with 100 percent electric powered capacity buses. Aimed at Providing an efficient solution to transporte an average of 300,000 passengers per day, with a socially acceptable price.
The Dakar's BRT is Planned to be a game-changer in the city's transportation landscape, addressing the challenges posed by urbanization and population growth. It aims to offer a more efficient and affordable alternative to private vehicles, helping to alleviate traffic congestion and improve air quality.
Seuls les sénégalais ne savent pas que le pays a considérablement changé.merci pour ce beau reportage.
Ils le savent mais ils sont plus concernés par l’économie. Ils faut que le peuple soit autonome financièrement
Seuls les imbéciles de l'ex pastef avec leur violeur de leader refusent de l'admettre
I was in Dakar lately and I love the BRT project all around Sicap, Alle du centenaire, pikine etc...
Je suis fière du Sénégal ❤big up 🇨🇮👍
WOW Senegal is so beautiful and it looks like its on its way to become a middle income country in no-time. Well done my beautiful people. Keep growing, keep developing, keep inspiring. 😍😍
Whoever is prosecuting these Senegal transformations is VISIONARY and really has eyes for beauty. Is it their president macky sall? Or the minister responsible for innovation? Etc? Ghana should be doing these sort of grand projects, building a completely new well planned city, modernizing/replanning Accra, building a sky train, doing a BRT with dedicated lanes, banning plastic etc etc. But...
It is Macky Sall's vision.
Good on Senegal for having such ambitious plans for the future! Thanks once again for sharing Matthew.👍👍
Thank you
An exciting video with quality images on Senegal's development process.
Thank you

Go Senegal, GO
Senegal development is impressive indeed,yet they are silent about it while going about building a nation not making noises about it or giving their senators 70bn for fixing chairs and table like some giant of Africa.😅l am impressed, Welldone to them.Thank you.
Run Silent. Run Deep.
I'm Ghanaian and I'm also impressed. Ghanaians we'd be making noise all over the place but with little to show for.
Merci bcp
Still a French vassal state
There’s another project called BRT that is going to be inaugurated soon. It will include 100% electric bus
Africa is making grat progress......I believe the pronounciation is Jiamh-nah-jioh... 😉
Very looks great. Love your videos
Thank you much appreciated
Thanks a lot for a such interesting video:)
Beautiful city.
2 to comment senegal is nice
Thank you
My beautiful country I love this
It is really true that West Africa is rising! By 2021, West Africa’s gross domestic product (GDP PPP) was $1.714 trillion, despite COVID 19 and the European world war. Five of the countries (Benin, Côte d'Ivoire, Ghana, Nigeria and Senegal), you have highlighted are among seven countries with per capita GDP of $3,000 or more in 2021: Benin, $3,300; Senegal, $3,500; Nigeria, $4,900; Côte d'Ivoire, $5,300; Mauritania, $5,300; Ghana, $5,400; and Cape Verde, $6,100.
As of July 2023, there were 448 million people in Western Africa. West Africa is rising!
Great video…keep up with the amazing content!
Thank you
excellente vidéo
Dakar is an advanced city with morden structures, as people are looking forward for smart cities I believe Senegal is there already, bravo to the city authorities.
Beautiful ❤❤
Thank you
You're not jealous? 😜You see how BEAUTIFUL the Senegal space looks? The Senegalese have EYES FOR BEAUTY. Not the village stuff we do in Ghana. They're even building a Bus Rapid Transit system with DEDICATED LANES for buses, with buses RUNNING ON ELECTRICITY!
And this's a country having only fish and groundnuts. Konadu we're joking in Ghana o. It's sad
@markntiri8251 Senegal export gold, zicron, phosphate and more
@@diawaraoussey9091 thank you

Yakh sa derrou deuk loo siy âme?
It is more than 17 millions people that use the train since...

big big pluz for senegal meen
First to comment 😂😂😂😂
😮
Senegal is not only Dakar, I think we have to spread what is done in Dakar in other regions .
Dakar makes Accra look like a dirty village
Enough of this stupid divisiveness from you guys already.
can't u make a comment without mentioned accra with all those developments ghana is 100 times better then senegal
ghana is doing free senior high one disrect one factor u think is a small development
@@nanaaddo9110 ahaa. This is exactly what he wanted. If a Senegalese feels strongly about your comment, he also goes off on Ghana and then a feud ensues. These guys have no iota of integrity and sincerity in them. They try to recruit other Africans to join their anti-Ghana idiocy. He saw the Ghana videos oo. When he couldn't criticise how the neighborhoods look, he said Ghana was not only about the areas shown in the video. In other words, he should have been shown slums. Meanwhile, he has far more slums in his sprawling backyard. They tend to think they're doing someone when they engage in this stupid act of self-belittling. Pathetic.
😂😂😂

If anyone from Dakar can hosts me 😂😂 I want visit there
Yes i can if you want to visit
Visit Abuja for god sake......
Bus ticket from Lagos to Abuja is N36k that's if I want to risk the road. Similar distance in Ghana Accra to Tamale cost me about N8k
@@MyAfricaView so all your tour has been on bus driving not on plane......so is this your excuse not to show Nigeria's capital city to the world......you are well known that African all know about Lagos but doesn't know anything about Abuja from road and greenry to structure........you can carry on if you are making excuses just to insult nigeria just like everybody who thinks nigeria is just Lagos......
I've seen abuja in plenty videos. What i noticed is that abusa is still a young city under construction.
All these developments are nice.. but not priority! Senegal should concentrate on job creation (see the amount of Senegalese taking the dangerous routes in search for greener pastures) not building beautiful structures for attracting tourism only! Affordable housing across the country- not just Dakar should be the focus of the next government! Let the government empower our local businesses and citizens by minimizing imports and building affordable accommodations for the masses.
I so happy for Senegalese people unlike Nigeria where our politicians steal our money and dump it in foreign countries. I am glad to see my fellow west African country doing well ❤
TOUT CE QUE MONTREZ RESTE DANS LA RÉGION DE DAKAR
C'est normal, Dakar concentre 25% de la population...
Senegalese people says thank you Macky sall best president 🇸🇳
Life whit out freedom of speech. Is dictate. Free your self sénégalais. Freedom is l islam.
We already free, there's absolutely no dictatorship like you want to make us believe. Stop the politics
They can't even ditch the franq lol first ditch that currency.
It's a process. It's not an easy affair.
@@hugo-di6xm what process, you had 70 years to ditch that colonial noose around your necks, 70!! you still sitting here in poverty while your country's resources are sold to one master and now to the russian mercenaries lol africa is a fk joke!
@@ibizawavey8630where do you see russian mercenaries in senegal?
Even with that, they managed to create a better more developed nation than yours. Shame on you for having your currency and still be lame
Im back to let you see how your country nigeria is fighting alongside ECOWAS and France to keep the franc countries like niger under french dominance, now you understand the challenge we've been facing right?
