Port of Mombasa, Kenya

The port of Mombasa is the largest port in Kenya and East Africa. Thus, it is important not only for Kenya, but also for neighbouring landlocked countries such as Uganda, Burundi and Rwanda relying on it for their large scale international trade. The rapidly growing transport volumes require a continous adaption of the port’s transport and handling capacities, ist infrastructure as well as its connections to the hinterland. Since 2013, Inros Lackner has been supporting the development of the port of Mombasa with a wide range of services such as the planning, execution and interpretation of topographical, bathymetric and geotechnical surveys, the redevelopment and construction of waterside and landside port facilities. Studies performed comprise e.g. environmental impact assessments, implementation plans for new buildings, feasibility and traffic studies for road and rail connections as well as the design for deepening and widening of the port’s entrance channel and turning basin.
