Major work on the new container terminal at the Port of Walvis Bay in Namibia is on track for completion by the end of this year, according to the Namibian Ports Authority (NPA).

An NPA statement pointed out that the close to US$350 million project was already 75% complete with four new ship-to-shore cranes expected to arrive at the port before this weekend.  

This will be the first time that STS cranes are being deployed at the port.
