🇨🇮 Abidjan, Ivory Coast, Abobo Behind the Rails: A Morning Rush-Time Immersion in Sagbé's Bokabo

This morning, I set off from the Abobo town hall to observe the city's activity during the morning rush hour. From the early hours of the day, many residents head towards various transportation hubs to reach their workplaces, particularly those in the direction of Adjamé and Plateau.

I walk around the area from the Abobo town hall to the train station, notably around the Abobo gendarmerie, where one can observe the crowds of people waiting for buses, minibuses, and other forms of transport.

I then make a quick stop to observe the ongoing construction work related to the Abidjan metro line before continuing my walk towards Abobo Behind the Rails.

Behind the Rails is a large area of ​​Abobo. For this exploration, I travel from Sagbé to Bokabo, discovering the streets and paths within the neighborhood.

This part of the walk holds a few surprises: some paths are more like dirt tracks, several lead to dead ends, while others end at large ditches or passages that are difficult to identify. I sometimes had to find my way to continue this exploration on foot.

This video is a long immersion in Abobo, capturing the hustle and bustle of rush hour, public transportation, the train station, urban construction, and discovering daily life in Derrière Rail, Sagbé, and Bokabo.

🇨🇮 Abidjan, Ivory Coast: exploring Abobo Derrière Rail from Sagbé to Bokabo during the morning rush hour.

This morning, I start my walk from Abobo City Hall to experience the morning rush and observe the large number of people heading to work.

I walk from the city hall towards the Abobo transport station, around the Abobo Gendarmerie, where many passengers wait for buses, minibuses and other forms of public transportation heading toward areas such as Adjamé and Plateau.

I then take a quick look at the ongoing Abidjan metro construction works before continuing my walking tour toward Abobo Derrière Rail.

Behind Rail is a very large area of ​​Abobo. During this exploration, I walk from Sagbé to Bokabo, discovering the streets, paths and everyday life inside the neighborhood.

Some of the roads are more like dirt tracks, while others lead to dead ends, large drainage ditches and difficult passages, making it surprisingly challenging to find my way through parts of Derrière Rail.

This long Abidjan walking tour offers a look at morning traffic, public transportation, ongoing urban construction and everyday life in Abobo, Derrière Rail, Sagbé and Bokabo.
