EXPANSION FROM 0.7 TO 2.4m TEUs per annum
<p>This project entails reclamation of 21 ha between Pier 1<br />
and Salisbury Island, and a long term lease of 8.6 ha of<br />
SA Navy land. The Navy base will be consolidated onto a<br />
more efficient footprint. The Infill option will deliver three<br />
deep water berths. Two berths on the diagonal and one<br />
around the corner. The terminal will be equipped with<br />
RTGs and STS cranes.<br />
The current strategy to increase container handling<br />
capacity at the Port of Durban is to proceed with the Pier<br />
1 Phase 2 Infill option after FEL-3 completion and upon<br />
obtaining an approved EA. This option will utilise two<br />
deep water diagonal berths ( water depth of 16,5m) and<br />
a deepened Berth 104 with an infill area, the TNPA land<br />
behind Berths 99/100 and the SA Navy land.<br />
Additional Capacity:<br />
1.7 m TEU"’s<br />
(2.4 m TEU"’s by 2027 therefore in the 27/28 FY).</p>
