While on the ports side Transnet will spend 90.6 BN SEK upgrading South Africa’s old ports and creating new ones Saldanha Bay: A Multi Purpose Terminal will be developed to facilitate exports of globally sought-after commodities from the Northern Cape interior Cape Town: Cape Town container demand is expected to quadruple over the next 30 years Port Elizabeth and Ngqura: The ports at Port Elizabeth and Ngqura service the Eastern Cape hinterland and act as a secondary gateway to Gauteng. Ngqura is also well located to optimise maritime transshipment traffic between the east and west coasts of the continent. Two new berths and a proposed new outer basin will help meet increased demand at Ngqura. Durban: This busy port, which connects demandheavy Gauteng with the coast, handles two-thirds of all South African port traffic. Berths at the existing port will be deepened and widened, while a brand-new “dig-out” port will be created at the former Durban airport site in order to meet an anticipated six-fold increase in container traffic The development of phase 1 of the Port is expected to exceed 30 BN SEK is not included in the Transnet capital expenditure plan. Durban port will have increased focus and investment in developing more efficient services and expanding current capacity to meet demand and projected demand Richards Bay and Maputo: A proposed link to the Swaziland rail network will provide additional capacity for general freight exports to Richards Bay and Maputo. The ‘Maputo corridor’ will connect Gauteng, Limpopo and Mpumalanga with the Mozambican capital.
