The commissioning of the berth 19 has been rescheduled following the change of guard in the country. The ceremony scheduled to take place in last month did not take place.
Speaking to Eng.Oremo of Kenya Ports Authority, he said that they were now awaiting a date from the president on when he would preside over the ceremony. The berth is a major boost for activity in the busy Mombasa port. The port is used by neighbouring countries as a gateway increasing the activity there. Other than the berth, the port is also working on a second container terminal whose works according to a recent report by the authority are 34 per cent complete. The three berths in Lamu Eng.Oremo also pointed that they were at the stage of short listing contractors who would undertake works on the three berths under the Lamu Port – South Sudan – Ethiopia Transport Corridor Project (Lapsset).
