High transport costs have been an impediment to Africa’s growth and development for far too long

he planning, design, construction and management of the infrastructure required for efficient and effective transport links falls within the ambit of road agencies across the continent — such as the SA National Roads Agency in SA, ANE in Mozambique or Kenya’s KeNHA. These corridors required building not simply the roads and bridges to carry the goods but also establishing the logistics — regulations and institutions — that would facilitate the movement of goods, people and services.

For example, Sanral has stakeholders as one of its business strategy pillars, concentrating on laying the foundations for economic participation of small businesses and rural actors in the construction and maintenance process. It also has developed strategic partnerships with leading private-sector companies at the apex of the supply chains in which it operates.

Apart from the rail component, the 590km N4 highway plays a significant role in facilitating market access, building the integrative infrastructure and bringing countries together. SA high commissioner to Mozambique Mandisi Mpahlwa
