Worth noting are emissions (GHG). International freight transport is projected to grow four- UNCTAD’s technical assistance and capacity building efforts carried out under fold between 2010 and 2050, which will result in a significant increase in GHG the UN Development Account project on “Building Capacities of Developing emissions in a business-as-usual scenario. Countries to Shift towards Sustainable Freight Transport”. UNCTAD also organized a training and capacity-building workshop in Nairobi, Kenya in The 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development (2030 Agenda) and the March 2016 in cooperation with Northern and Central Corridor Authorities Paris Agreement on Climate Change (Paris Agreement) both call upon the that provided guidance on how to promote sustainable freight transport international community to take bold and transformative action to shift the systems across the two corridors. world onto a sustainable and low-carbon path. International freight transport must also align with this universal sustainable development trajectory, UNCTAD will continue to support the Northern and Central Corridors in particularly in terms of mitigating GHG emissions. their transition to low-carbon and sustainable freight systems. An UNCTAD Reference Framework on Sustainable Freight Transport is being developed The Green Freight Program is the first step of a long-term action plan by the to provide guidance, a step-by-step methodology, and a sustainable freight Northern Corridor Transit and Transport Coordination Authority (NCTTCA) transport rating scheme for use by all interested parties and countries. The aimed at implementing a comprehensive Sustainable Freight Transport Strategy Framework will help the Northern and Central Corridors develop tailor-made for 2030 and beyond. In addition to direct benefits to the Northern Corridor multimodal sustainable freight transport strategies that also incorporate a and its member States, the NCTTCA Green Freight Program will provide useful critical environmental component.

Thursday, 9 May 2019 Transport and trade facilitation are critical for LLDCs trade • LLDCs face special trade and transport challenges, arising from their lack of territorial access to the sea. Exports and imports of LLDCs have to transit through at least one neighboring country, and often use more than one mode of transport. Hence, they also dependent on their transit countries’ transport infrastructure and administrative procedures for moving their exports and imports. • The geographical challenges of LLDCs compounded by weak/inadequate transit- transport infrastructure, inefficient administrative and customs operations have an impact on the cost of trade, where LLDCs pay more what the transit countries incur in transport costs and take longer time to export and import merchandise from overseas markets.

  • The Northern Corridordigest
    Issue: #2 2020 April SOUTH SUDAN DEMOCRATIC REPUBLIC OF THE NORTHERNCONGO CORRIDORDIGEST For an Efficient, Smart and Green Corridor UGANDA RWANDA BURUNDI KENYA DEVELOPMENT PARTNERS THE NORTHERN CORRIDOR DIGEST ISSUE # 2 APRIL 2020Y 1 Keep Trade and Cross-Border Transport Facilitated Before the spread of the COVID-19, the Northern Corridor region was performing well. In the period January-December 2019, the Port of Mom- basa recorded 34,439,264 tons with a growth of 3,515,976 tons or 11.4 per cent compared to the 30,923,288 tons registered in the corresponding period in 2018. The overall share of intra-Northern Corridor trade has been increasing over the years. For instance, in 2018, intra-Northern Corridor trade grew by about 2 per cent for Burundi; 13 per cent for DRC; 33 per cent for Ken- ya; 14 per cent for Rwanda and 38 per cent for Uganda. Before the pandemic, Transit times had improved on most routes along the Northern Corridor suggesting that interventions are being implement- ed to facilitate cargo movement. Weighbridge crossing time also improved as a result of implementation of High-Speed Weigh-in-Motion. Exective Secretary Now the “new normal” we are seeing low arrivals of ships at the Port of Mombasa and cancellation as countries tightened travel to contain the spread of COVID-19. The Long Distance Drivers Association also is claiming that its members are taking longer to deliver cargo and return empty containers to the ports, as drivers cannot move during the set times of curfew in Member States. In this time of global crisis, as the UNCTAD’s Secretary-General Mukhisa Kituyi said, “it was more than ever to keep supply chains open and to allow maritime trade and cross-border transport to continue.

  • CROSS-BORDER ROAD CORRIDORS the Quest to Integrate Africa
    CROSS-BORDER ROAD CORRIDORS The Quest to Integrate Africa Infrastructure and Urban Development Department African Development Bank CCIA Building Avenue Jean-Paul II 01 BP 1387 Abidjan 01, Côte d’Ivoire www.afdb.org Foreword Cross-border road corridors play a critical role in supporting Africa’s regional economic integration. They improve transport communications between neighbouring countries and provide landlocked countries with access to seaports. They invariably promote international and intra-regional trade by reducing transport and shipping costs as well as transit time for imports and exports. By removing physical barriers to cross-border trade and expanding markets beyond national boundaries, international road corridors foster a conducive environment for the private sector and for attracting foreign direct investments. In addition to enhancing trade and strengthening regional integration, cross-border road corridors contribute to poverty reduction by increasing access to markets and social services. The quest to Integrate Africa is one of the African Development Bank strategic High 5 priorities. The Bank Group has been a trusted partner and has played a lead role in supporting the development and construction of regional corridors throughout the African continent. In addition to removing infrastructure bottlenecks, the Bank has also supported trade and transport facilitation initiatives including the construction of one-stop-border-posts and the harmonization of documentation and customs procedures. Over the past 12 years, the Bank has financed nearly USD 8 billion of regional transport projects. As a result, close to 13,000 km of regional highways have been built on 17 road corridors, along with 26 one-stop border post facilities.

  • Transit Corridors Servicing the Trade of Landlocked Developing Countries
    UNITED NATIONS CONFERENCE ON TRADE AND DEVELOPMENT THE WAY TO THE OCEAN Transit corridors servicing the trade of landlocked developing countries Transport and Trade Facilitation Series No. 4 UNITED NATIONS CONFERENCE ON TRADE AND DEVELOPMENT THE WAY TO THE OCEAN Technical report by the UNCTAD secretariat UNITED NATIONS New York and Geneva, 2013 NOTE The designations employed and the presentation of the material in this publication do not imply the expression of any opinion whatsoever on the part of the Secretariat of the United Nations concerning the legal status of any country, territory, city or area, or of its authorities, or concerning the delineation of its frontiers or boundaries. UNCTAD/DTL/TLB/2012/1 @ Copyright United Nations 2013 All rights reserved ii THE WAY TO THE OCEAN Transit corridors servicing the trade of landlocked developing countries Summary The present paper looks at selected East African transit corridors which provide access to seaports as gateways to link landlocked developing countries (LLDCs) with overseas trading partners. The report suggests three complementary courses of action to improve transit transport efficiency and sustainability: (a) Building institutional capacity through corridor management arrangements, including formal agreements, where and as appropriate; (b) Improving the reliability and predictability of transit operations by trust-building measures between public regulators and private operators, such as risk-management customs systems, which allow for fewer en route checks, shorter delays and smaller convoys; (c) Developing and operating transport nodes, or freight hubs, with a particular focus on the consolidation of small flows, to create critical masses required to achieve economies of scale, higher return on investment on both infrastructure and transport services, and lead to the development of effective intermodal transit operations.
