Public Transportation Startups in Africa

Public transport in East Africa remains fragmented and inefficient. Despite startups like SA Taxi, Zebra Cabs, and BuuPass, challenges persist: poor infrastructure, limited funding, and regulatory hurdles. Local leaders emphasize the need for collaboration, data-driven planning, and government support to transform the sector and improve mobility for all.
