PRESENTATION	The project aims at diverting part of the traffic of the Port of Dar-es-Salaam to the port of Bagamoyo located approximately 60 km up north, with a view to address the physical and logistical limitations surrounding the development and future role of Dar-es-Salaam port. The project also intends to take advantage of the availability of suitable sites for developing deep water berths which is complimented by availability of a vast land area earmarked by the Government for the development of an Economic Processing Zone. The project consists in developing a state-of-the-art port for containers and imported vehicles at Mbegani-Bagamoyo. The design is based on PostPanamax vessels, and a compact and reliable RTG (Rubber Tyred Gantry Crane) Yard System and high-capacity road and rail connectivity. A Feasibility Study was undertaken in 2010 and complemented by a Study on the Development of Bagamoyo Port (Ras Mbegani), June 2023.
