  • Abstract:
    Fiji is an island nation comprised of 330 islands. As such it is heavily dependent on maritime traffic and the ports that support that traffic. The Project will rehabilitate Suva Port, the country's busiest international entry port, by strengthening King's Wharf to the required seismic standard, improving the port's container layout, and extending the capacity of Lautoka Port with additional berthing and container storage space. The Project supports sector performance improvements through a multipronged reform program. The Project aims to improve regional competitiveness of the port system by (i) extending the life of King's Wharf by 15 years, (ii) ensuring that the wharf complies with the required seismic standards, (iii) improving the wharf deck and container yard to efficiently handle the increasing cargo loads, and (iv) extending Lautoka Port facilities to facilitate trade opportunities with reduced time and cost impact of port and cargo handling operations. The report discusses the role of the Maritime and Ports Authority of Fiji (MPAF) in managing port infrastructure and setting policy. Relevant legislation is outlined. The report describes the physical condition and port operations of both Suva and Lautoka. The report outlines scope, costs, financing, and implementation arrangements for the technical assistance.
