Transnet envisages the new port of Ngqura north of Port Elizabeth developing into a container transshipment hub serving partners in Southern Africa generally, as well as the west and east of the continent.
Transnet’s National Ports Authority in conjunction with its Port Terminals division have between them invested R2 billion (USD 165 million) in expanding operating capacity at the Ngqura Container Terminal from 800,000 TEUs to 1.5 million. Actual annual container throughput at the Ngqura terminal is around 730,000 TEUs at present.
