International Partner Recommendation: Addis Ababa City Administration Transport Bureau

International Partner Recommendation: Addis Ababa City Administration Transport Bureau

Our team is proud to receive an international partner recommendation from the Addis Ababa City Administration Transport Bureau for our role in the Transportation and Parking Systems Impact Assessment Survey. In collaboration with Shaka Analytics, we supported efforts to better understand mobility challenges and opportunities across Ethiopia’s capital.

The survey focused on six key corridors in Addis Ababa, aiming to assess transportation patterns, transit accessibility, parking utilization, and the overall impact of the Corridor Development Project. These insights will help inform long-term strategies to reduce congestion and make the city more walkable, bikeable, and accessible for all.

“The Addis Ababa City Administration Transport Bureau has had the pleasure of collaborating with SHAKA Analytics, in partnership with ETC Institute on the Addis Ababa City Administration Transportation and Parking Systems Survey. Throughout this engagement, the organization has demonstrated exceptional commitment, professionalism, and dedication to the project.

The project required a multidisciplinary approach and a high level of expertise, both of which were met with diligence and precision by SHAKA Analytics and ETC Institute. Their ability to deliver on complex requirements has exceeded our expectations.

ETC Institute, in particular has carried out the responsibilities assigned by our Bureau with enthusiasm, integrity, and punctuality. The partnership between SHAKA Analytics and ETC Institute has consistently exhibited the highest standards of professionalism from the inception of the project to it’s completion.

Based on our positive experience with ETC Institute, we whole heartedly recommend their services for any survey or project requiring professional expertise and a strong commitment to excellence.“

The Ethiopian government launched this project to support its broader infrastructure goals—reducing traffic congestion, enhancing green corridors, and making Addis Ababa a more attractive destination for both tourists and businesses.

Shaka Analytics played a critical role by leading data collection efforts with the support of the Transport Bureau. ETC Institute provided design and analysis expertise to ensure the results would support actionable improvements.

“Shaka Analytics’ role was to gather information from the residents and determine if it aligns with the vision and purpose of the strategy. We collected the first phase data with the help of the Transport Office of Addis, and the result is mind-blowing—how, in such a short time, this transformation is happening in a developing country. We can already see the potential for Addis Ababa to become a competitive destination, not just in Africa, but even compared to parts of the Middle East.”
