Because of its importance and its impact, urban mobility in major Algerian cities is a topical issue of great importance, given the critical state of congestion caused by transport congestion, particularly in urban centers. Due to its large population, its strategic position at the crossroads of four national highways and its large-scale socioeconomic facilities, the city of Bejaia (the second largest city in Algeria for port business activities) has an attractive power over the entire region, resulting in significant commuting, with a clear preference for private cars and effective use of public transport. However, its road and transport networks suffer from several hazards, which has had negative effects on road traffic. To remedy this situation, the local authorities have taken several actions to correct the malfunctions of the traffic. This paper attempts to highlight the role of local governance in managing urban mobility. Our main question concerns the current actions implemented by local authorities in order to curb the congestion that characterizes this city.
