Botswanan rail expansion plans

摘要

Botswana Railways (BR) has announced plans for two new rail projects designed to handle mining commodities. One of the two is the proposed 400 km line from Mo-setse in Botswana to Zambia, which would improve access to South African ports for miners in Zambia and Democratic Republic of Congo, while providing an alternative to the existing route through Zimbabwe via the Beitbridge crossing.
