Maputo, Mozambique, 2 June – Management company Corredor de Desenvolvimento de Nacala (CDN) requires funding of US$18 million to re-build a stretch of railroad between Cuamba and Entre Lagos, which is part of the railway linking Mozambique to Malawi.
According to Manuel Macopa, director of the railroad, contacted by macauhub, reconstruction of that 77 kilometre section would help to move goods traffic from Nacala to Malawi.
"At the moment we are not able to meet demand,” Macopa said noting that CDN was looking for solutions.
At peak times, between June and December, each months 32,000 tonnes of cargo is transported.
One of the solutions found is to rebuild a section just 7 kilometres long, which would cost CDN US$500,000.
Corredor de Desenvolvimento de Nacala has managed the Nacala railroad system since January 2005. (macauhub)
