Today I attended a session hosted by Agbiz outlining the Rail Network Statement (by Jan Louis Spoelstra) and Private Sector Participation department (by Jaap vd Merwe). Very informative session unpacking the processes and opportunities in the Rail and Ports environments applicable for the Agri sector. I outlined the immediate focus on Loskop region and the study that will be commissioned in the near future. We also see short term scope for Rail on the Maputo corridor. Still much to be done before we see the first inaugural private sector Rail operations on the SA network. Capital funding on Rail assets I think needs a good framework.
