330   $aThe book addresses conceptual issues around urban transportation policy and practice in selected west African cities. It highlights the institutional, socio economic and infrastructural barriers of transit-oriented development in West Africa. Through a series of case studies, the chapters present how transport governance systems affect housing, land, infrastructure development, urbanization dynamics, construction and the urban poor. The chapters in this book are written by authors from multi-disciplinary backgrounds including architecture, construction management, real estate, urban planning and public health, and are members of the African Research Network on Urbanization and Habitable Cities, a research network supported by the UKRI African Research Universities Alliance Capacity Building Programme. By providing a solid empirical portrait based on lived and research experience, this book will be a great resource to students, academics and policy makers in transport, urban planning and development policy as well as social scientists.
