Abstract
Planning decisions designed to reinforce Abidjans status as a capital city and decision-making and business center have resulted in a concentric, monocentric territorial configuration. The article analyzes the daily mobilities generated by this monocentricity, inherent in the choice of symbolic amenities as producers of negative externalities. These negative externalities such as pollution, road insecurity, monetary and time losses, soil artificialization, social or spatial inequity and loss of accessibility are factors of territorial vulnerabilites. The transition from an exacerbated monocentricity to a polycentric, multimodal or rather multinodal system, through the emergence of new territorial nodes and urban hubs, will provide a sustainable impetus to this capital territory of Cote dIvoire.
