Briefing Memorandum: the Kazungula Bridge Botswana-Zambia
Briefing Memorandum: The Kazungula Bridge – Botswana-Zambia ICA Meeting: Financing Transport for Growth in Africa December 3-4, 2007 Briefing Memorandum: Kazungula Bridge – Botswana-Zambia TABLE OF CONTENTS 1. Summary 2. The Project 3. Economic Rationale 4. Feasibility Analysis 5. Project Contacts 6. Next Steps ICA Meeting: Financing Transport for Growth in Africa 2 Briefing Memorandum: Kazungula Bridge – Botswana-Zambia 1. Summary The Kazungula Bridge Project consists of the construction of a bridge across the Zambezi River between Botswana and Zambia, as well as the improvement of border facilities situated near the crossing. The main objective of the Kazungula Bridge is to replace the ferry service between the two countries, which suffers from slow traffic clearance as a result of limited carrying capacity. The bridge will form an important part of the trade infrastructure of the Southern African Development Community (SADC) and the African continent. The construction of the Kazungula Bridge would enhance transport operations along the regional north-south corridor, which links the mineral-rich regions of Zambia and the Democratic Republic of the Congo to Botswana and the port of Durban in South Africa. In light of its importance, the Japan International Cooperation Agency (JICA) commissioned a study by Nippon Koei and Oriental Consultant. The study, published in March 2001, confirmed the technical and economic feasibility the project. The total cost for the Kazungula Bridge is estimated at US$ 70 million, with an additional US$ 30 million required for the border control facilities. Nippon Koei and Oriental Consultants have estimated that the construction would take 4 years, excluding engineering studies. -

4 Development Directions for Regional Infrastructure
Preparatory Survey for Southern Africa Integrated Transport Program Chapter 4 4 Development Directions for Regional Infrastructure 4.1 Infrastructure Bottlenecks under Growth Scenarios 4.1.1 Current Industrial Situation of the Corridors In parallel with the macro analysis undertaken in Chapter 2, summary information on development potential in the region (especially of mineral resources development accompanied by cross-border transport improvements and an overview of a Mega Project) are presented in this section. More details may be found in Appendix B. The results serve as input to Section 4.1.3 on Infrastructure Bottlenecks under the Growth Scenarios. The figure below visually summarizes the mineral and agricultural potential in the Southern African region. (The number of corridor in Figure 4.1.1 corresponds to this section’s paragraph number.) Figure 4.1.1 Mineral and Agricultural Resources and Corridors (1) Nacala Corridor Nacala is regarded as the best location for a deepwater port on the East African coast. The Nacala Corridor has consequently been at the forefront of ongoing initiatives to rehabilitate the rail link to Malawi, thereby creating a number of “anchor” tenants and promoting development 4-1 Preparatory Survey for Southern Africa Integrated Transport Program Chapter 4 along the corridor. Together with Beira and other corridors (Sena and Tete), these developments have been linked to the possible export of coal from the Moatize and Benga coal fields as well as from the Muchana Vuzi coal fields north of the Cahorra Bassa Dam in Tete Province, Mozambique. The corridor is ultimately seen as linking Lusaka in Zambia with the Port of Nacala. -

INFORMATION TO USERS This reproduction was made from a copy of a document sent to us for microfilming. While the most advanced technology has been used to photograph and reproduce tliis document, the quality o f the reproduction is heavily dependent upon the quality o f the material submitted. The following explanation of techniques is provided to help clarify markings or notations which may appear on this reproduction. 1.The sign or “target” for pages apparently lacking from the document photographed is “Missing Page(s)”. I f it was possible to obtain the missing page(s) or section, they are spliced into the film along with adjacent pages. This may have necessitated cutting through an image and duplicating adjacent pages to assure complete continuity. 2. When an image on the film is obliterated with a round black mark, it is an indication o f either blurred copy because of movement during exposure, duplicate copy, or copyrighted materials that should not have been filmed. For blurred pages, a good image o f the page can be found in the adjacent frame. If copyrighted materials were deleted, a target note will appear listing the pages in the adjacent frame. 3. When a map, drawing or chart, etc., is part o f the material being photographed, a definite method o f “sectioning" the material has been followed. It is customary to begin filming at the upper left hand comer of a large sheet and to continue from left to right in equal sections with small overlaps. I f necessary, sectioning is continued again—beginning below the first row and continuing on until complete. -
