Every day, about 80,000 people pass through the gates of the Train Express Regional,

每天大約有 8 萬人穿過區域快鐵的大門，

known as TER, the pride of Senegal's railway system.

它被稱為 TER，是塞內加爾鐵路系統的驕傲。

Since 2021, the train has been running regularly between Dakar and Diem Niadiu,

自 2021 年以來，這列火車定期運行於達卡與迪亞姆尼亞久之間，

the new science and administrative hub 36km away.

那是一個位於 36 公里外的全新科學與行政中心。

A government official used to spend over two hours a day stacking traffic.

這位政府官員過去每天要花兩個多小時塞在車陣中。

現在他的通勤時間只需 40 分鐘。

And he's doing something good for the environment, which he values highly.

而且他正在為他高度重視的環境盡一份心力。

I'm not saying it will eliminate it completely, but we are already seeing fewer cars on the road.

我不是說它會完全消除污染，但我們已經看到路上的車輛減少了。

Traffic is smoother now when you look at the highways and toll roads,

現在觀察高速公路和收費道路時，交通變得更順暢了，

because people are using the TER and leaving their cars behind.

因為人們改搭 TER 並且不再開車。

I think it's making a real impact on the environment.

我認為這對環境產生了真正的影響。

The TER is a flagship project designed to cut Senegal's CO2 emissions by around 30% by 2030.

TER 是一項旗艦計畫，旨在 2030 年前將塞內加爾的二氧化碳排放量削減約 30%。

The country currently produces about 12 million tonnes of greenhouse gases each year, and

該國目前每年產生約 1200 萬噸溫室氣體，而且

nearly all of its transport related emissions come from road traffic.

幾乎所有與運輸相關的排放都來自道路交通。

We looked at the number of passengers using the TER and calculated the CO2 emissions we are saving.

我們觀察了使用 TER 的乘客數量，並計算出我們所節省的二氧化碳排放量。

So far, we've transported over 55 million passengers.

到目前為止，我們已運送了超過 5500 萬名乘客。

If you assume these passengers took the TER instead of a car or bus,

如果你假設這些乘客是搭乘 TER 而不是開車或搭巴士，

we've saved more than 150,000 tons of CO2.

我們已經節省了超過 15 萬噸的二氧化碳。

And passenger numbers are rising from 17,000 a day in its first year to almost five times that amount today.

乘客人數正持續增長，從第一年的每天 1.7 萬人增加到今天的近五倍之多。

Depending on the class and destination, tickets cost between 80 cents and around €4.

根據車廂等級和目的地，票價介於 80 分（歐分）到 4 歐元之間。

When I go to Dakar to run errands, I prefer taking the TER because I need to be fast.

當我去達卡辦事時，我偏好搭乘 TER，因為我需要速度。

Before, I used to take minibuses or buses where everyone's jostling.

以前我常搭小型巴士或大巴士，在那裡每個人都推來擠去。

It's really difficult compared to the TER.

與 TER 相比，那真的非常辛苦。

If I want to get there quickly, I take the TER to avoid traffic jams.

如果我想快點到達，我會搭 TER 以避開交通堵塞。

It's quiet, comfortable, cooler, and there's less pollution.

這裡安靜、舒適、涼爽，而且污染較少。

The TER is also committed to sustainable and efficient waste management at its 13 stations.

TER 也致力於在其 13 個車站實施永續且高效的廢棄物管理。

We've set up a waste sorting system at all our sites, in the stations, maintenance areas and on the trains.

我們在所有場站、車站、維修區以及火車上都建立了垃圾分類系統。

At the stations, we have waste collectors and special transparent bins so we can monitor what's inside.

在車站，我們設有垃圾收集器和特製的透明箱，以便監測內容物。

These bins are divided into two compartments for recyclable waste and non-recyclable.

這些箱子分為兩個隔間，分別存放可回收與不可回收的廢棄物。

But progress has also brought new challenges.

In some areas along the tracks, trash is being dumped on railway property.

在沿線的部分區域，垃圾被傾倒在鐵路財產範圍內。

To combat this, the railway operators are organizing cleanup events and running campaigns to raise public awareness.

為了應對這一點，鐵路營運商正組織清理活動並開展宣傳活動以提高公眾意識。

These awareness campaigns also focus on safety.

這些意識宣傳活動也聚焦於安全。

Since we deal with a lot of trespassing on the tracks and there is the issue of sanitation.

因為我們常面臨擅闖軌道的問題，此外還有環境衛生的問題。

Because people are throwing their waste onto railway property.

因為人們正將廢棄物扔進鐵路區域。

We are also tackling illegal dumping within our premises.

我們也正在處理場區內非法傾倒垃圾的問題。

Waste management and sustainable mass transit.

The TER has proven to be a major success.

By mid-2025, the line will extend to the international airport.

到 2025 年年中，這條路線將延伸至國際機場。

The terror isn't just transporting passengers.

It's bringing big ambitions into reality.

它正在將宏大的抱負轉化為現實。
