Tanga: Tanga harbour will handle more cargo.

The aim is to turn around the harbour’s fortunes, according to the official.

The harbour will also handle Tanga-based GBP’s refined oil destined for Zanzibar.

According to Salama, the harbour has lost several customers who feel costs have been rising.

However, efforts are being made to open the Tanga-Arusha railway line for the harbour to serve more customers and increase the harbour’s revenue.
