Ministry of Transport and Logistics is undertaking an upgrade to the public transport terminal at the Asco Public Transport Terminal, one of the terminals in Addis Abeba city. The works include paving 6,000 square meters of concrete asphalt, temporary accommodation sheds and chairs for passengers, as well as guard house and office space renovation. The work will enable a 24-hour service upon completion. Seifu Kenfu, executive director of infrastructure at the Ministry, stated that the aim is to create a user-friendly environment for commuters. Federal and city officials have set ambitious improvement plans for transportation facilities in tandem with the city’s new urban landscape, ultimately planning to replace the city’s ageing taxi fleet. During a recent discussion, Minister Alemu Sime (PhD), of the Ministry of Transport and Logistics, and Yabibal Addis, Addis Ababa Transport Bureau head, emphasized the need to modernize service delivery to effectively address existing challenges in the transport sector.
