Takoradi Port expansion improves turnaround time

The Port of Takoradi’s Director, Mr Peter Amoo-Bediako, claims that the port’s enhanced business turnaround time is a result of its operations and infrastructure expansion.

Additionally, there has been a noticeable real-time rise in the transportation of clinker, bauxite, and manganese.

During a visit to the port by São Tome’s Minister for Infrastructure, Natural Resources and Transport Kwaku Ofori Asiamah, the Director of the Port of Takoradi informed journalists.

Resources and Environment: The Port’s potential to emerge as the go-to transit port for the landlocked countries of Burkina Faso, Niger, and Mall in West Africa.

He claimed that the port’s efficiency had increased with the addition of the new 16-meter deep dry bulk terminal with an automated conveyor system, as well as the new container and multipurpose terminals.

According to Mr. Amoo Bediako, the Executive instrument permitted a roughly 6-kilometre section of beach road to be extended from Sekondi Nkotompo towards the Sekondi Naval Base.

“We are looking forward to a reclamation of 2km into the sea with investor support”

He declared that a business called Gensar Energy, which was based inside the port, was taking back some land from the New Dry Bulk terminal so that it could build its Liquefied Petroleum Gas (LPG) storage tank farms.
