Kalundu Port Infrastructure Upgrade

Project Rationale

Kalundu Port is the main entry point for trade into the  Kivu region. The Port is threatened by sedimentation at the port entrance. The sandbank has risen to the point where vessels accessing the port run a high risk of grounding. This also means that larger ships cannot access the port. The removal of the sandbank through dredging at the port is therefore necessary for its continued ability to service larger vessels. Furthermore, the project will modernise ageing infrastructure (warehouses, pavement, fencing etc.).

NB/ If the project is above $250,000 a PAR must be submitted for approval
