Sudan The rail line between Kampala and Mombasa is running well with an estimated transit of 10 days. We offer extensive CTBL services throughout Kenya backed by a deal negotiated with Rift Valley Railways [RVR], the operator of the Kenya-Uganda Railways, we are able to offer very competitive and reduced rates to the ICD Embakasi, Nairobi from Mombasa port, Kenya. However due to numerous derailments between Mombasa and ICD Embakasi, RVR has stopped containers with 10% and more imbalance of cargo - can proceed with a survey and the rebalance of cargo. Our ASEA KENYA service, providing direct weekly services from Asia to Mombasa, enhances our inland solutions to domestic Kenya, Uganda, Rwanda, South Sudan, eastern DRC. We also offer routes to the North Kivu region in eastern DRC and new connections through Mombasa port to Beni, Butembo and Kisangani, towns all lying on the main national route N4. A New reefer solution is available from Nairobi to Mombasa by road. 2 ● Tanzania-Great Lakes With a new improved ASEA TANZANIA service we offer direct weekly service from Asia to Dar Es Salaam enhancing inland solutions to the heart of DRC, Burundi, Rwanda. Roads from Dar Es Salaam to North Rwanda and DRC [Goma / Bukavu / Uvira are in good condition. Due to political tensions/riots our bookings to Burundi are suspended until further notice. Our Tanzanian transporters will not perform trucking to/from Burundi as the border could close at any time. We do not see the situation improving until post-election. Our team is working on a plan with our transporter for units already discharged and that are currently on board our vessels. 3 ● Tanzania-Copper Belt Roads through Mbeya offer an alternative to the train to Ndola. We are the only line to have an owned office in Lubumbashi which closely monitors the local situation. The corridor from Dar Es Salaam to Lusaka, Copper belt & Lubumbashi is safe and offers competitive rates and transit times. Our local agent is working with local hauliers to further improve this. With an improved ASEA TANZANIA service we offer direct weekly service from Asia to Dar Es Salaam enhancing inland solutions to Malawi and Zambia. 4 ● Mozambique Nacala Corridor We can accept bookings on this corridor in spite of the railways not being fully operational following heavy rains. CDN Railway has advised a new estimated date of May 25th for the line to be back in order. Back-up solutions are being organised locally and we trust that the situation will get back to normal shortly. 5 ● Mozambique Beira Corridor New rail solution in place Beira-Harare. CMA CGM will indemnify client from further liability should any port storage incur on the units to be railed. 6 ● Mozambique Maputo Corridor New competitive solutions are available to Zimbabwe by rail from Maputo- Hwange. Please note there are no port storage invoiced if shortage of wagons in Maputo. 7 ● S. Africa Durban New competitive rates are available to Lusaka & Copperbelt [Zambia], Lubumbashi [DRC] and Gaborone [Botswana]. We have extended our South African inland reefer service from/to the port of Durban to Johannesburg. Extension of all other over border trucking rates. 8 ● Namibia Walvis Bay Following negotiations with service providers we offer a new routing solution for export CTBL cargo from Zambia to Namibia. The route along the Trans-Caprivi Corridor links Zambia with the Port of Walvis Bay via the Katima Mulilo bridge border crossing. Also export solutions are available from DRC and Zambia to Walvis Bay for dry and reefer equipment. The corridor to Lusaka, Kitwe, Ndola & Lubumbashi in south DRC are running well. We also offer Windhoek! 3 Western Africa Corridor Current Situation 1 ● Senegal-Mali Both road and rail options are running smoothly with good transits available. 2 ● Senegal-Guinea Bissau The corridor remains open but due to the Ebola crisis the border process and status will be checked on a case by case basis before booking. 3 ● Cote d’Ivoire-Burkina/Mali The rail service from Abidjan is running well offering excellent transit times and no congestion. We also recommend the road option. Furthermore the Group is to launch a new reefer service from Abidjan to many new inland destinations. 4 ● Ghana-Burkina Tema-Ouagadougou service is now available as an additional option. The Tema corridor to Burkina is now the most competitive pricewise, with excellent transit time from Asia with AFEX service. Our expert TBL team is now in place and fully involved for all your booking requests. 5 ● Togo-Burkina/Niger Service is running well. Thanks to good volumes and on-going negotiations with suppliers we have decreased our Ouagadougou rates from Lome. We can also offer excellent solutions from Asia on our AFEX service. Please note that the port of Lome is strict on enforcing weight regulations for trucks. 6 ● Cameroon-Chad Rail delays faced as CAMRAIL, the operator, is experiencing congestion in Douala & N’Gaoundere stations. We suggest cargo is moved via our road TBL service. 7 ● Cameroon-CAR Douala-Bangui is open. This corridor is offered on a case by case with agreement from our local Douala Agency. Political security is not 100% on this corridor. 8 ● Gabon Corridor From Libreville, CMA CGM serves domestic destinations by road to Franceville, Lambarene, Mouila, Bitam, Moanda, Mitzicand Makokou. 9 ● Congo Corridor Pointe Noire-Brazzaville corridor is REOPENED on a request basis. We are undertaking some trial shipments as a test case. 10 ● DRC Corridor Matadi-Kinshasa service running slowly due to congestion and delays at Pointe Noire port. 4 CMA CGM / DELMAS AFRICAN GROUP NEWS Group’s Newest CTBL Export Offer Opening The Zambia-Walvis Bay Corridor Following negotiations with service providers we are pleased to offer a new routing solution for export CTBL cargo from Zambia to Namibia. The route along the Trans-Caprivi Corridor links Zambia with the Port of Walvis Bay via the Katima Mulilo bridge border crossing. The Port is operated by the Namibian Port Authority [Namport] and serves as a gateway linking Southern Africa’s major trading regions to international markets.

  • 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.
