Project rationale
Kasenyi Port, on the DRC side of Lake Albert, juxtaposes the Port of Ntoroko on the Uganda side. Lake Albert provides a trading route across water to the city of Bunia and the hinterland, until Kisangani. The project aims to rehabilitate the infrastructure at the Port. The jetty will be renovated, with the first 112 metres requiring a small amount of refurbishment, but the basic construction is generally considered to be sound. The top surface of this 112 metres will be paved with reinforced concrete. The old fixed crane structure and rails crane will be dismantled and removed from the site. The remaining 51 metres of the jetty will be paved to take the weight of the mobile cranes. Capstans and new rails will be installed.
