Project Overview

Connecting Dakar to the future of Senegal.

The Dakar Express Railway represents Senegal's most significant infrastructure investment in a generation. The Train Express Regional connects the historic capital of Dakar to the new Blaise Diagne International Airport and the city of Thiès, providing a modern, high-capacity alternative to the chronically congested N1 corridor.

As the only major international advisory firm with a permanent presence in Dakar, Proficient Advisory brought a unique combination of global rail expertise and deep local knowledge to the project. Our advisory touched multiple dimensions of the project, from initial route planning through to commercial strategy and operational readiness.
