The second container terminal at the Mombasa port to be commissioned by
President Uhuru Kenyatta on September 3, 2016.
President Uhuru Kenyatta and his Deputy William Ruto will be in
Mombasa and Kwale counties Saturday where they are expected to tour some
of the projects initiated by the Jubilee administration.
In
the morning, the President will commission the second container
terminal at the Mombasa port, marking a milestone in port
infrastructural development projects started over five years ago.
The terminal, constructed with funding from the Japanese government, has already started operations.
This
is the largest single project the government has undertaken at the
port, with the other projects being the Sh10 billion twin projects of
construction of berth 19 and dredging of the harbour to accommodate
large vessels.
With the terminal in operation, Kenya Ports Authority (KPA) now has a capacity of over 1.2 million containers.
