L\u2019Afrique compte, aujourd\u2019hui, un peu plus de 84 000 kilom\u00e8tres de voies ferr\u00e9es, dont moins de 12 pour cent \u00e9lectrifi\u00e9es, selon l\u2019Union africaine (UA). La plupart des r\u00e9seaux demeurent fragment\u00e9s \u00e0 l\u2019int\u00e9rieur des fronti\u00e8res nationales, une tendance que le projet du R\u00e9seau ferroviaire int\u00e9gr\u00e9 africain (AIRN) entend inverser en mettant en place une dorsale fluide et interconnect\u00e9e \u00e0 l\u2019\u00e9chelle continentale, a-t-on indiqu\u00e9.<\/p>\n
L’AIRN offre, a-t-on ajout\u00e9, la base de transport n\u00e9cessaire \u00e0 la concr\u00e9tisation de cadres cl\u00e9s tels que la Zone de libre-\u00e9change continentale africaine (ZLECAf), le Programme d\u00e9taill\u00e9 de d\u00e9veloppement de l\u2019agriculture africaine (PDDAA), le Plan d\u2019action pour le d\u00e9veloppement industriel acc\u00e9l\u00e9r\u00e9 de l\u2019Afrique (AIDA) et la Vision africaine des mines (VAM). En r\u00e9duisant les co\u00fbts de transport, le rail peut abaisser les frais de fret de pr\u00e8s de 40 pour cent par rapport \u00e0 la route, a-t-on fait remarquer.<\/p>\n
Le projet AIRN positionne le ferroviaire comme moteur de transformation \u00e9conomique et catalyseur de paix et de s\u00e9curit\u00e9, a-t-on soulign\u00e9. Bien plus qu\u2019un simple mode de transport, le rail constitue l\u2019\u00e9pine dorsale de la connectivit\u00e9 r\u00e9gionale, reliant les \u00e9conomies et ouvrant des perspectives \u00e0 travers le continent, a-t-on relev\u00e9.<\/p>\n
