Guinea’s roads
New toll roads, and the long road inland.
Road is how Guinea travels: taxi-brousse, minibus and moto-taxi. Tolls are new here, paid to the Fonds d’Entretien Routier since a 2024 law, and N-Ways shows the way with the lanes and signs as you see them.
- Tanènè on the Conakry–Boké road is the toll post in service: 20,000 FG for a car, 5,000 FG for a motorbike. Posts at Tabily and Foyé on the N1 to Kindia and Mamou are being built.
- Intercity taxi seats cost about 60,000 FG from Conakry to Kindia and 200,000 FG to Labé, by the latest reported fares; minibuses cost a little less.
- Speed limits: 60 km/h in town for cars, 100 km/h outside.
