Industry clarity is essential on how the public-private partnership PPP at Durban ports Pier 2 container terminal will interface with wider network enablers, says Dr Juanita Maree, chief executive of the Southern African Association of Freight Forwarders Saaff.
This was her message in a media statement after Wednesdays official signing into operation of the deal that will see International Container Terminal Services Incorporated assume control of 49 of South Africas busiest box pier for a period of 25 years.
Clarity on interfacing, Maree stresses, includes rail slot allocation, border and customs coordination, digital integration, and the alignment of terminal operations with the Gauteng hub and regional trade corridors.
