Kenya Ports Authority (KPA) plans to construct an administration block and create more facilities at the Inland Container Depot as usage of the facility picks up. “Plans are underway to construct a proper administration block that will house the one-stop centre and provide office accommodation for cargo interveners, expand the yard to create more capacity and also construct a trucks holding yard,” the authority said in a statement yesterday. According to KPA, business is steadily picking up at the newly opened facility. This is despite a recent backlash by Uganda, which opposed mandatory clearance of transit cargo at the facility, saying its use should be optional.
