SUMMARY
The PwC research shows that factors that facilitate competitive ports are sufficient draught, quay length and crane sizes to accommodate the largest container vessels among others.
Also key are facilities supporting efficient land transport connections along corridors leading into and out of the port and landside transport connections and operations effectiveness, including rapid container handling and quick ship turnaround times.
The report says there are many improvements underway that will foster the competitiveness of Kenya’s ports and related transport and logistics infrastructure.
