<p>The Sena line runs from Limbe (going through Chiromo where the railway line crosses the Shire River, where the culvert has been washed away and Nsanje) to Marka, the border between Malawi and Mozambique.</p>

<p>The Nacala Railway Corridor Project will transport approximately 18 million tons of coal, derived from the expansion of Moatize Mine (Mozambique) through a railway system connecting the existing mine in Moatize to a new coal terminal in Nacala Velha (Mozambique). The project was funded by Vale, and has the potential of being developed into a transport corridor for Mozambique&#39;s Tete Province, and potentially Zambia and the Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC). The railway line is located in the north-western region of Mozambique, starting at Moatize in the Tete Province, going through Malawi and connecting to the existing railway network at Nkaya Junction. From here the route follows the exisitng alignment through Entre Lagos, Cuamba and Nampula. Finally, in the region of Monapo, the railway follows a new route up to the new coal terminal at Nacala Velha. Aurecon previously developed FEL 1, 2 and 3 (Front End Loading) studies for the development of the corridor. The Detail Design (FEL4), included the design of the entire railway line and its associated infrastructure from the mine loadout station to the car dumper at the proposed new port terminal at Nacala Velha. The railway line is designed for a 20.5t axle load. Apart from providing an export conduit for the client, the rail corridor will have direct- and indirect social benefits to the larger community in terms of job creation, improved mobility (passenger train services) and the economic development of the region.</p>

<p>The Nacala Railway Corridor Project will transport approximately 18 million tons of coal, derived from the expansion of Moatize Mine (Mozambique) through a railway system connecting the existing mine in Moatize to a new coal terminal in Nacala Velha (Mozambique). The project was funded by Vale, and has the potential of being developed into a transport corridor for Mozambique&#39;s Tete Province, and potentially Zambia and the Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC). The coal terminal will have the capacity to handle 30 million tons per annum.</p>

<p>Expansion of Nacala Port container terminal (Mozambique) to accommodate 600 000 TEUs per annum.</p>

<p>Expansion of the Maputo port, including the dredging of the port from its current 9,4 m draught to 11 m to accommodate the larger Panamax vessels, which will improve the port"’s competitiveness in terms of bulk and container traffic, and expansion of the coal terminal.</p>

<p>Dredging of the 40 km entrance channel to the port of Beira.</p>

<p>multi purpose terminal construction, container terminal expansion, construction of wharf 11a and wharf 11b, including paving an area of more than 20 hectares; and construction of a Fertilizer Terminal and its supporting infrastructure, Rehabilitation and Expansion of the Fuel Terminal.</p>
<p>The project serves a planned infrastructure asset of another sector, but there is more than 50% overlap in the geography serviced by the proposed project and the other sector planned asset.</p>
<p>The project is being undertaken by the Ministry of Transport and Communications (Mozambique), and entails the construction of a multipurpose terminal, container terminal expansion, construction of wharf 11a and wharf 11b, including paving an area of more than 20 hectares; and construction of a Fertilizer Terminal and its supporting infrastructure, Rehabilitation and Expansion of the Fuel Terminal, with the objective of Increasing the handling capacity of the Beira port, offering services to destinations in Zambia, Malawi, Zimbabwe and Part of DRC. The project also seeks to enhance the efficiency of the logistic chain that relies on a good port and sound transport infrastructure. </p>

<p>Technical Specifications Document: A multi-purpose terminal construction, container terminal expansion, construction of wharf 11a and wharf 11b, including paving an area of more than 20 hectares, and construction of a fertilizer terminal and it's supporting infrastructure and the rehabilitation and expansion of the fuel terminal o service a population 153m. The services that need to be considered include the technical work stream, being the alignment of technical feasibility studies with financial entities requirements, supporting Sponsors to bridge the gap between the technical feasibility studies conducted and the technical feasibility requirements imposed by the entities that will be financing the implementation of the project and the project structuring and bankability works stream: project structuring - definition of the different financing options. This would include a financial appraisal of the project and preparation of the business plan; bankability - fine-tuning of financing options through a collaborative process with financial entities until a financial close is reached for the project implementation. Potential activities to carry out in this phase include carrying out a market sounding and support in the financial structuring of the project.</p>

<p>The project involves the construction of a new coal terminal at Beira port. A 50 ha site has been set aside for this purpsoe. The terminal is intended to process export coal mined by Brazilian group Vale and Anglo-Australian group Rio Tinto.</p>

<p>Reconstruction of the cargo and passenger transport system on the Beira-Machipanda railway line, linking the provinces of Sofala and Manica to neighbouring Zimbabwe, via the Machipanda border post, will once again allow people and goods to travel, particularly rural workers along the Beira corridor. This section of railway is of particular importance to Mozambique as it is expected to offer greater dynamism to the strategy of linking different development hubs in the country and neighbouring regions, and improve efficiency in transporting passengers and cargo between points along the railway.</p>
