Dear Friends
The 2-week hiatus has meant this week’s GNF has even better news than normal!
After our Port Manager implemented the Port Recovery Plan on 16th March, there is a noticeable improvement in productivity with the past 2 weeks results reflecting this – well done to the Transnet team!
Let’s move forward together!

The port handled 103 vessel movements, 35 incoming, 41 departures & 27 shifting;
CTCT: 18399 TEU handled; 4.5 hour delay due to vessel ranging as short tension units only working at 602 & 604, 601 not alongside as yet but in the pipeline, however, no wind delays! Plus 8- hour delay awaiting load approval from shipping line.
403 Rail moves, only 8% night utilisation mainly due to the long Easter weekend
