FYI we are talking about a very short distance of appr. 5 km. It will not take more than 4 weeks man hours watakuwa wamemaliza kujenga.
For now they don't want to disturb the flow of freight trains out and into the port through NGR which is still the backbone of cargo transport for hinterland and the neighboring countries.
Once the Dar - Moro SGR, the marshaling yard and ICD at Kwala are ready. They will complete this 5 km SGR stretch from Shaurimoyo to the harbor. Thereafter, no freight NGR trains will be allowed to go to the port. Instead, freight NGR trains will offload and load their goods at Kwala ICD.
Only cargo SGR shunters will be plying between the port and Kwala ICD.
