With Kribi, Cameroon and the countries of the sub-region now have a deepwater port capable of accommodating the new-generation deep-draught container ships that serve the coasts of Central and West Africa.<\/p>

The development of the Ed\u00e9a - Kribi line has been the subject of a number of studies, notably by CAMRAIL, which commissioned the railway engineering firm SYSTRA to carry out a summary pre-feasibility study aimed at proposing a route and assessing the construction costs of the line; and by the Ministry of Public Works (MINTP), which commissioned a consortium of technical consulting firms (Consortium Team Engineering, CPCS, SPT) to carry out preliminary design studies, a provisional report of which was published in September 2018.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

Thanks to its shorter transit times and lower freight volumes, the port of Kribi is in a position to offer a growing share of maritime import and export traffic to Central and Northern Cameroon, which until now has been handled via the port of Douala. It is likely that a significant proportion of import traffic destined for Chad and the far north of Cameroon, as well as export traffic, notably containerized timber traffic, will gradually be diverted from Douala to Kribi.<\/p>

The construction of a rail link between Ed\u00e9a and Kribi is essential for the continuation of CAMRAIL's freight transport activities. CAMRAIL is initially implementing a road-rail solution to meet the needs of the new port infrastructure.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t

The renewal of this 330 km line is being financed by the European Investment Bank (EIB) to the tune of 80.7 billion F. The financing agreement between Cameroon and the EIB was signed on May 5, 2022 in Yaound\u00e9.<\/p>

This work will improve freight and passenger links to northern Cameroon, Chad and the Central African Republic, by reducing journey times and increasing rail traffic capacity.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t

The railroad line linking Ngaound\u00e9r\u00e9 to N'Djamena via Kousseri is expected to cover 700 to 800 km. Financing has been obtained from the ADB for the preliminary design studies. A call for tenders has been launched to select the engineering firm to carry out the study. The project is managed by a technical steering and monitoring committee made up of experts from the 2 countries (5 members for Chad and 5 members for Cameroon). This committee is supported by a technical management unit made up of engineers from both countries.\u00a0<\/p>

Africa Global Logistics has been designated as the project's technical partner through its subsidiary CAMRAIL. The studies are scheduled to take 22 months from the start of 2019.<\/p>

Following receipt of the preliminary design, the Cameroon-Chad Railway Commission plans to convene a donor conference with a view to a public-private partnership.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"

Modernisation et d\u00e9veloppement NOS PROJETS Modernisation et d\u00e9veloppement Le projet de construction de la nouvelle voie entre Edea \/ Lolab\u00e9 et Kribi ainsi que celui de l\u2019extension du r\u00e9seau vers le Tchad ne rel\u00e8vent pas de la responsabilit\u00e9 de CAMRAIL. Une desserte rail – route de Kribi Avec Kribi, le Cameroun et les pays de la sous-r\u00e9gion disposent d\u00e9sormais d\u2019un port en eaux profondes capable d\u2019accueillir les navires, notamment porte-conteneurs de nouvelle g\u00e9n\u00e9ration, \u00e0 fort tirant d\u2019eau, qui desservent les c\u00f4tes d\u2019Afrique Centrale et de l\u2019Ouest. Le d\u00e9veloppement de la ligne Ed\u00e9a \u2013 Kribi a fait l\u2019objet de plusieurs \u00e9tudes qui ont \u00e9t\u00e9 men\u00e9es notamment\u00a0par CAMRAIL qui a mandat\u00e9 le bureau d\u2019\u00e9tudes ferroviaires SYSTRA afin de r\u00e9aliser une \u00e9tude de pr\u00e9faisabilit\u00e9 sommaire visant \u00e0 proposer un trac\u00e9 et avoir une \u00e9valuation des co\u00fbts de construction de la ligne\u00a0; et par le Minist\u00e8re des Travaux Publics (MINTP) qui a mandat\u00e9 un consortium de Bureaux d\u2019Etudes Techniques (Consortium Team Engineering, CPCS, SPT) pour r\u00e9aliser des \u00e9tudes d\u2019avant-projet sommaire\u00a0et dont un rapport provisoire a \u00e9t\u00e9 publi\u00e9 au mois de septembre 2018. Le port de Kribi en raison du temps de transit plus r\u00e9duit et des volumes de fret plus avantageux, est en mesure de proposer, une part croissante des trafics maritimes import et export \u00e0 destination du Centre et du Nord qui passaient jusqu\u2019\u00e0 pr\u00e9sent par le port de Douala. Il est vraisemblable qu\u2019une part importante des trafics import \u00e0 destination du Tchad et du Grand Nord du Cameroun ainsi que des trafics export, notamment les trafics de bois conteneuris\u00e9s vont \u00eatre progressivement d\u00e9tourn\u00e9s de Douala vers Kribi. La construction d\u2019une antenne ferroviaire entre Ed\u00e9a et Kribi est essentielle \u00e0 la poursuite des activit\u00e9s de transport de fret par CAMRAIL.
