Improved solid waste management infrastructure and services in selected agglomerations

This second component of PROMOGED will finance waste management facilities and the acquisition of equipment needed to create or improve (if necessary) waste management services in Greater Dakar and four secondary urban areas. These communities were selected based on three main criteria:

  • Total population and population growth;
  • Current socio-economic situation and expected impact of improved solid waste management on economic activities such as tourism;
  • Existence of sites where project co-financiers are already implementing other programs or projects that can be leveraged to create better synergies.

 

Based on these criteria, the following agglomerations have been agreed with the Government: Pôle Dakar, Pôle Thiès (Thiès, Mbour and Tivaouane), Pôle Nord (Saint-Louis and Matam), Pôle Casamance (Ziguinchor, Kolda and Sédhiou) .
This component has two sub-components:

a) Improving waste management services for the Dakar hub along the entire value chain (pre-collection, collection, recycling, transfer, treatment and disposal), and gradually improving the Mbeubeuss site;

b) Implementation of an integrated waste management system in three secondary poles.
PROMOGED will ultimately enable the establishment of the following infrastructures:

  1. In the Dakar pole, in addition to the Mbeubeuss rehabilitation, there will be 49 Collection Points (CP), 3 Sorting and Transfer Centers (STC) and 2 Integrated Waste Recovery Centers (IWRC): 2                        
  2. In the NORTH pole, there will be 34 Collection Points (CPs), 63 Standardized Collection Points (SCPs), 4 Collection and Marketing Centers (CRCs), 1 Sorting and Transfer Center (STC), 3 Integrated Waste Recovery Centers (IWRCs) as well as the rehabilitation of the Gandon, Richard Toll, Rosso, Goureg Serigne and other small landfills.
  3. In the Thiès pole, 35 Collection Points (CP), 86 Standardized Collection Points (SCP), 4 Collection and Marketing Centers (CRC), 1 Sorting and Transfer Center (STC), 2 Integrated Waste Recovery Centers (IWRC), as well as the rehabilitation of the landfills of Thiès, Gandigal, Tivaouane and other small landfills are planned.

 

In the Casamance pole, 23 Collection Points (CPs), 35 Standardized Collection Points (SCPs), 4 Collection and Marketing Centers (CRCs), 3 Integrated Waste Recovery Centers (IWRCs), as well as the rehabilitation of the Diendé Road landfill, South Airport, Mamatoro, are planned.
