Most East African countries will see more cargo transported by SGR cargo train

In the ongoing push to create more logistical efficiency and cost-effectiveness, most East African countries will see more cargo transported by SGR cargo train. This follows an announcement by the government on its intention to extend the line to Kisumu and Malaba. This happens even as plans to hand the railway back to Kenya railways from Chinese firm Afristar are in top gear. experts say the extension would completely revolutionise transport in Kenya with the country already reaping the benefits of SGR, the country’s biggest infrastructure since independence.
