Grand Lomé, Togo’s metropolis and capital city, is experiencing an urban explosion that is creating enormous road and traffic management challenges. Mobility is increasingly marked by heavy congestion, traffic congestion caused by businesses, and illegal parking on the roads, aggravating road safety challenges. This research project aims to analyze the influence of poor road management on the mobility of the population of Grand Lomé. The methodological approach involved drawing up an inventory of the road network through observation and interviews with the stakeholders and road users. The results reveal a lack of appropriate road layout on the one hand and poor management of traffic flow, the absence of parking areas, and poor enforcement on the other. The road network is substandard. The main roads do not have sidewalks or crosswalks. Most of the sidewalks that do exist on some new roads are narrow and illegally occupied by businesses, preventing non-motorized transport users from benefiting from them. Bicycle paths are virtually non-existent on new lanes, which highlights the lane configuration problem. In order to ensure sustainable mobility in cities like Lomé, it is essential to optimize the road network and traffic conditions.
