The AVIS project in Cameroon

After the successful first AVIS pilot project in Togo, the World Bank’s Global Road Safety Facility (GRSF) and CITA decided to renew their collaboration in Cameroon.

The AVIS (Assessment of Vehicle Inspection Systems) project has the overall objective of carrying out audits of vehicle inspection systems in different countries in sub-Saharan Africa – and this second study in Cameroon to make a diagnosis country’s PTI and registration system, along with a review of the structure in charge.

With the highest per capita rate of road fatalities in the world, road deaths in sub-Saharan Africa are projected to more than double from some 243,000 deaths projected for 2015 to 514,000 by 2030.
