Infrastructures
Ports and airports: one of Mozambique’s best facilities is its infrastructure, especially ports and railways connecting landlocked neighbors to the Indian Ocean. The main ports of Maputo, Beira and Nacala are at their peak of performance following upgrading with the involvement of private sector. In addition, the immense natural gas deposits in the Rovuma Basin have prompted the authorities to establish a logistical harbor in Pemba where a deep-water port already exists.
Roads and bridges are being upgraded everywhere in the country and new ones are being built. Thanks to these developments, it is now effectively possible to move freight from the south to the north and between provinces. In Maputo, the construction of a bridge across Maputo Bay to the town of Catembe is almost complete. With the planned improvement of the road between Catembe and the tourism town of Ponta de Ouro on the border with the wealthy South African province of KwaZulu-Natal, the economic activity including cross border trade will receive a major boost.
Airports are not left behind. Upgrading airports is a top government priority. Maputo, Vilanculos and Pemba have already seen their airports rebuilt. The port city of Nacala has a brand-new international airport which will play a major role for the economy of the northern region of the country.
