Namibia Appraises Dry Port

New Era (Windhoek)

The Walvis Bay Corridor Group (WBCG) is in the process of conducting feasibility studies on dry port facilities along Namibia’s three corridors.

Two years ago, the company said it was planning to establish an inland container depot or dry dock in Gobabis once the cargo volumes on the Trans-Kalahari Corridor increased.

The planned development forms part of the Trans-Kalahari Express, a multi modal transport system between Gaborone in Botswana and Gauteng in South Africa to Walvis Bay port.

The main objective of the dry port development project is to promote intermodal seamless transport along the various Walvis Bay Corridor routes, an objective that will be pursued through upgrading existing and/or developing new dry ports or inland container depots at the rail heads of the national rail network at stations at Gobabis along the Trans-Kalahari Corridor, at Grootfontein/Tsumeb on the Trans-Caprivi Corridor and Ondandwa/Oshikango on the Trans-Cunene Corridor.

WBCG Business Development Officer Agnetha Mouton told New Era last week the establishment of dry ports depends on various factors such as volumes of cargo, investment possibilities and the participation of various stakeholders.
