Addis Ababa: Corridor development projects across both urban and rural settings in Ethiopia continue to introduce dignified, equitable public spaces that uplift communities, Prime Minister Abiy Ahmed remarked. The premier, together with Addis Ababa Mayor Adanech Abebe, reviewed the completed Anbesa Garage – Jukrose – Goro Square corridor development earlier today.
According to Ethiopian News Agency, Prime Minister Abiy stated that the development of the Anbesa Garage – Jukrose – Goro Square corridor in Addis Ababa has brought transformative changes to a once congested area. The addition of walkways, parking facilities, children’s playgrounds, shops, public plazas, public toilets, and designated taxi and bus bays has revitalized the neighborhood, making it more accessible, inclusive, and livable for all.
Corridor development projects across both urban and rural settings continue to introduce dignified, equitable public spaces that uplift communities. The prime minister emphasized that recent rural corridor initiatives aim to rejuvenate rural areas and improve the quality of life for their residents. He also extended appreciation to the Addis Ababa City Administration and the sub-cities that have mobilized resources to expand the corridor initiative into the city’s peripheral areas.
Prime Minister Abiy encouraged other sub-cities and cities across the country to prioritize citizen-centered approaches as they reimagine and reconfigure urban life for the better.
