goods
are
transported
through
the
northern corridor.
The
northern
corridor refers to the transport
route linking the land locked
countries of Uganda, Rwanda,
Burundi, South Sudan and
eastern DR Congo with Kenyas
sea port of Mombasa.
Ugandas alternative route to
the Indian Ocean is the central
corridor, which emanates from
Dar es Salaam in Tanzania.
However, this route is heavily
disadvantaged compared to the
northern corridor because of
distance.
The road journey from
Mombasa to Kampala is about
1,200km, while the journey
from Kampala to Dar es Salaam
is about 1,800km.
As a result, about 98% of
Ugandas transit goods go
through Mombasa. Less than
2% goes through Tanzanias
Dar es Salaam.
The rail-marine option
Due to the extra 600km that
Ugandan truck drivers have
to endure from Dar es Salaam
via Mutukula on the UgandanTanzanian border, the most
appropriate option would be
to step up the rail-marine

up to a contract that they
must keep the route open,
they would use every excuse
to delay the implementation
of this. As government and

we recognise this constraint,
