Logistics and Industrial Corridor
Strengthen the logistics and
transport corridor between SA’s
main industrial hubs; improve
access to Durban’s export and
import facilities, raise efficiency
along the corridor and
integrate the Free State
Industrial Strategy activities
into the corridor and integrate
the currently disconnected
industrial and logistics activities
as well as marginalised rural
production centres surrounding
the corridor that are currently
isolated from the main logistics
system.
