Addis Ababa Traffic Management Authority Dissolved

The Addis Ababa City Council has decided to dissolve the city's Traffic Management Authority under a newly approved proclamation. The decision aims to address administrative challenges and fragmented traffic enforcement practices. The authority's responsibilities will be transferred to the city’s Transport Bureau, the Road Authority, and a newly established Transport Management Center.

The agency, which employs over 1,200 staff, stated that it has not yet received detailed implementation guidelines. Leadership officials indicated they have no information regarding the future placement of the employees, noting that details will be released once the ongoing reform study is concluded.
