Locations

Tanzania

Tanzania has pursued large-scale infrastructure investment to support industrialisation and regional trade integration, including expansion of standard gauge rail, port modernisation in Dar es Salaam, hydropower generation and road corridor upgrades. These projects aim to strengthen Tanzania’s position as a logistics gateway for landlocked neighbours while expanding domestic energy supply and manufacturing capacity. Continued improvements in public investment management, debt sustainability and private sector participation are central to ensuring that infrastructure spending translates into broad-based economic growth.

Zambia

Zambia’s development strategy emphasises transport corridors, power generation and mining-linked infrastructure to support economic diversification and regional trade. Investments in hydropower, road upgrades and cross-border rail links aim to strengthen Zambia’s role as a Southern African logistics node. Following recent debt restructuring efforts, maintaining fiscal discipline and improving public investment governance are key to sustaining infrastructure expansion and enhancing private sector confidence.
