Ministry of Transport in Tanzania is planning to expand the Port of Dar es Salaam by building five new piers with a length of 300 metres. The Port of Dar Es Salaam is Tanzania’s principal port and handles about 95% of its international trade.
Previously, the government has already made major improvements at the port through the US$421 million Dar Es Salaam Maritime Gateway Project (DMGP), which was launched in 2017 and financed by the World Bank and other partners.
The scheme included the construction of a new roll-on, roll-off terminal, which began operations in 2021, as well as deepening the existing berths 1-7, deepening and widening the entrance channel to the harbour basin and turning circle, improving rail linkages and constructing a cargo rail terminal.
Environmental and social impact assessments for the dredging, deepening and strengthening of berths 8-11 have been completed and work is ongoing on the feasibility study.
