PORTS II

closed

The proposed project would improve physical handling capacity and operational productivity, enabling Port Sudan to meet projected traffic until 1987. The project would supplement the First Port Project, which concentrated essentially on increased capacity for general cargo handling, through: (i) berth modifications, including paving of handling areas, enabling the port to meet the rapidly growing container and roll on-roll off traffic; (ii) improvement of grain and edible oil handling facilities; (iii) improvements to the electrical power system within the port; and (iv) increased efficiency in general port operations and management through the provision of communications facilities and technical assistance and training.
