Métro d’Abidjan : La construction d’un pont-rail lancée
Launched in 2017, the construction work on the Abidjan Metro is not really progressing at high speed.
Information gathered from the Ivorian press at the end of 2025 indicates the completion of the metal framework spanning the Ebrié Lagoon and connecting Plateau to Treichville. This framework is a crucial component of Line 1 of the Abidjan Metro, which crosses the city from north to south.
The construction of this railway bridge "will lead to temporary changes in traffic..."
As part of the construction of metro line 1, a railway bridge will soon be built over Boulevard de Marseille, specifically at the intersection known as "Ancien Koumassi". This information was made public on Friday, September 11, 2026, by the Ivorian Ministry of Infrastructure and Road Maintenance.
The construction work for this railway bridge "will lead to temporary changes in traffic, including lane reconfigurations and roadway reductions in the area concerned, from Saturday, September 12, 2026 to Friday, May 7, 2027, depending on the different phases of the project," the ministerial department stated in its press release.
Line 1 of the Abidjan Metro (37 km) is scheduled to open in 2029.
Users are therefore asked to "strictly respect" the traffic plan, construction site signage, and all safety measures that will be put in place.
Line 1 of the Abidjan Metro (37 km) is scheduled to open in 2029, but nothing is certain.
