Tanzania: CCCC Unveils Plan for Dar es Salaam Port Expansion

China Communications and Construction Company (CCCC) has announced plans for the construction of two container terminals in the port of Dar es Salaam in the near future.

The company’s Vice-President, Eng. Ren Hongpeng, says he is awaiting conclusion of funding arrangements involving the governments of Tanzania and China.

Construction work at the port will possibly involve dredging the port area and the approach channel.

The company will also build the container yard at the two terminals where 15,000 tonnes of cargo would be handled.
