UDART (UDA Rapid Transit) represents a transformative shift in the urban landscape of Dar es Salaam, Tanzania. Established to manage and operate the first phase of the city’s Bus Rapid Transit (BRT) system, UDART was designed to solve the chronic traffic congestion that once paralyzed the commercial capital. By introducing a structured, high-capacity transport network, the company has successfully reduced commute times for hundreds of thousands o residents, turning a once-chaotic transit experience into a more predictable and organized service. The core strength of UDART lies in its dedicated infrastructure. Unlike the traditional daladalas (minibuses) that compete with private cars in heavy traffic, UDART buses operate on exclusive median lanes. This allows the fleet—which includes both 12 meter buses and 18-meter articulated “bellows” buses to maintain a consistent schedule regardless of peak hour congestion. Key terminals like Kimara, Kivukoni, and Gerezani serve as major hubs, connecting the city’s outskirts to the central business district and the waterfront. Beyond speed, UDART has modernized the passenger experience through technology and accessibility. The system utilizes electronic ticketing and smart cards, which streamline the boarding process and reduce cash-handling issues.
