Why Maputo?
The Maputo Port offers a relatively shorter distance to sea when compared to the Ports of Richards Bay and Durban.
Below are examples of compared distances;
Matsapha - Goba – Maputo = 156kms + 70kms =226kms
Matsapha – Golela – Durban = 158kms + 390kms =548kms
Matsapha – Golela -Richards Bay = 158kms + 198kms=356kms
Mpaka – Goba – Maputo = 51kms + 70kms = 121kms
Mlawula –Goba – Maputo = 13kms + 70kms = 83kms

Joint Operating Centre -Maputo
Objective of the Joint Operating Centre
�Integrate coordination of traffic flows into Maputo Harbourand its terminals
�Coordinate all the traffic flows from local Mozambique , and international cargo from Swaziland and South Africa
�If there is no coordination, it was observed that everyone would be negatively affected.

JOC Maputo Centre
JOC-Maputo involves three main corridors .with traffic that has to be co-ordinated effectively
�Ressanio Garcia- Maputo
�Goba-Maputo
�Chicualacuala-Maputo
�All these lines converge at Machava station where a bottleneck has to be avoided
�Desk Officers from TFR , CFM & Swaziland Railway are stationed at the center to coordinate this traffic for 24 hrs a day �Operations Centre now fully staffed

Benefits from JOC
�Since the introduction of the JOC�Traffic has been closely monitored to cut bottlenecks
�Cutting idle time at exchange points
�Moving more traffic on the Ressanio-Garcia Line
�Decongesting at Stations
�Reports Generated ensured prompt actions to deal with challenges
�More traffic is being handled by the Maputo Port and MatolaTerminal
�If Maputo is well coordinated and receives high volumes of traffic,Traders from all three countries will be competitive with their products in the international market due to reduced transport and logistics costs.

The Goba-Maputo Line
Efficiency Re-defined
�The rail line is relatively good on both sides of thecountries.
�It operates at a maximum speed of 60km/h.
�On the Swaziland side, the line was upgraded in2004 from Matsapha.
�Wooden sleepers were replaced with concreteones.
�For a vacuum train, 40 wagons can be hauled withan airbrake train capable of hauling 50 wagons.
�The current idle capacity (Unused slots) of this line is75%�Can be used as a relief for the Ressanio Garcia Line during traindisruptions or Congestions
