Cette croissance assortie de fortes prévisions au cours des trois, voire quatre prochaines décennies, se fonde sur la démographique et l’urbanisation à grande échelle, l’exploitation de nouveaux gisements, de champs gaziers et pétrolifères d’une part; et d’autre part sur l'accroissement des échanges commerciaux intra régionaux et internationaux. L’on s’attend à ce que le secteur du transport ferroviaire, qui, grâce à sa politique d’efficacité énergétique, a permis de réduire les émissions de gaz à effet de serre et de baisser le coût de la tonne au kilomètre, comparativement aux autres modes de transport, joue un rôle plus important encore dans le monde du transport des marchandises sur de longues distances, ainsi que dans les réseaux de transport en commun en milieu interurbain et urbain.

  • 2.4 Zambia Railway Assessment
    2.4 Zambia Railway Assessment Travel Time Matrix Railway Companies and Consortia Capacity Table Key Route Information Key Stations The Zambia National Railways are very important to the economy of the country as it is a bulk carrier with less effect on the environment than many other transport modes. The Government intends to expand its railway network in the country to develop the surface transport sector. Through the Ministry of Transport, a new statutory instrument (SI) was passed, which requires industries to move 30% of their carriage by rail. This is in a bid to decongest the road sector and possibly reduce the damage done by heavy duty trucks on Zambian roads. The development of rail routes linking important exit points is not only vital for facilitating smooth access to the outside but also for the overall boosting of trade in the sub-region and making Zambia a competitive country for business. Traditionally, the Zambian railways have generally operated well below their original design capacity, yet significant investment is underway to increase their volumes by investing in track conditions, increase locomotive and wagon availability and increase operating capital. The rail network remains the dominant mode of transportation for goods on the local and international routes but is under-utilized. The main railway lines are the Zambia Railways, owned by Government and the TAZARA line, linking Zambia with Tanzania, and jointly owned by the Zambian and Tanzanian governments. The opening of the Chipata-Mchinji railway link provides connectivity into the Malawi and Mozambique railway network and further connects Zambia to the port of Nacala.

The country has a strong legal framework, low prevalence of civil unrest or disorder and minimal government interference in the mining sector. Botswana also boasts infrastructure that is in better condition than several of its neighbors, which has assisted in boosting interest from international companies in the mining sector. Botswana is one of the world leaders in diamond production, with Russia competing closely. While Russia was the largest diamond producer in the world in terms of production volume in 2012, Botswana produced the most in terms of value, accounting for 23.6 percent of total global diamond production.

    ZAMBIA RAILWAYS LIMTED Zambia as a link of Africa through Rail TABLE OF CONTENT 1. Brief about Zambia Railways Limited (ZRL) 2. ZRL Regional and Port linkages 3. Greenfield Regional and Port linkages 4. Trade Facilitation 5. Challenges being faced by railways in Africa 6. Possible solutions to Africa’s railway challenges 7. ZRL investment needs 8. Conclusion Brief about ZRL . ZRL is a parastatal railway organization under the Industrial Development Corporation (IDC), mandated to operate both freight and passenger trains. The company is headquartered in Kabwe, Central Province. The main workshops and the CTC are also in Kabwe. Strategic Vision: To be the preferred regional railway transport and logistics provider Strategic Mission: To provide sustainable and competitive rail transport and logistics solutions to customers and deliver shareholder value ZRL Regional and Port linkages Zambia is linked to almost all the trade corridors. Land linked (road and rail) to eight neighbors and beyond the country’s borders. We are a hub. The main trade corridors for Zambia by rail include: .The North-South Corridor .The Dar-es-Salaam Corridor .The Nacala Corridor .The Beira Corridor .Coming up is the Kazungula corridor Shortest route from Ndola is Dar-es-Salaam – 1,976km The longest route is Ndola-Durban – 2,951km. Greenfield regional and Port linkages Livingstone – Kazungula – Mosetse (about 440km). This will reduce transit time by about 12 days on the corridor – one stop border effect. Petauke to Beira (960km) - to connect to Mozambique; Kafue to Lions den - will reduce the distance by rail to South Africa and Mozambique ports by about 1,000km.
