ABSTRACT
Deficiencies in transport infrastructure and the transport services that operate thereon present massive problems for economic development across sub-Saharan Africa. However, infrastructure per se tends to receive more attention than transport services, a point stressed by Gwilliam (2010), who refers to transport services as ‘the forgotten problem’. In this chapter, to help redress that balance, discussion is principally concerned with transport services, after this brief introduction and a review of broad infrastructure issues.
