South Korea-based company Hyundai Rotem has secured contracts worth $295.65m (KRW335.4bn) from Tanzania Railways Corporation (TRC) to deliver eco-friendly train cars.

As per the deal, TRC will receive 80 train cars worth $190.12m and 17 electric locomotives worth $105.53m from Hyundai Rotem.

These railcars are expected to be delivered by 2024.

As part of Tanzania’s Standard Gauge Railway (SGR) line project, the new train cars will operate on a 546km high-speed electric line spanning between Dar es Salaam and Makutupora.

All 97 train cars will operate at a maximum speed of 160km/hr and will have the capacity to carry up to around 590 commuters.

These new trains will be much faster than the diesel trains currently operating in Tanzania at 30km-40km per hour.

They will also feature nursing rooms, along with seats for convenient wheelchair access.

Hyundai Rotem stated that these will be the company’s first eco-friendly electric train vehicles to run in Tanzania.

The company is expecting to secure future deals as the Tanzanian government is working on a railway infrastructure project.

Around $7bn has been invested by the country’s government in the SGR project.

The project involves the construction of a railway stretching 1,219km linking Dar es Salaam and Mwanza, with a standard track gauge of 1,435mm.

It aims to upgrade Tanzania’s rail infrastructure and is expected to expand the passenger and freight transportation volume.

In April, National Egyptian Railway Industries Company and Egypt’s Transportation and Planning and Economic Development ministries reportedly signed a memorandum of understanding with Hyundai Rotem.

Hyundai Rotem is an affiliate of Hyundai Motor Group, which has Hyundai Motor and Kia under its business control.

Tanzania Government has hired an engineering consultancy firm - COWI Tanzania, to conduct an architect design and feasibility study for the construction of a 411km section of the Standard Gauge Railway from Tabora to Kigoma Regions.

Works and Transport Deputy Minister, Mwita Waitara told legislators that the consultant firm is expected to complete the task this month.

The Standard Gauge Railway is intended to replace the old metre-gauge railway system and reduce road congestion. He was responding to a question posed by Buhigwe Member of Parliament Kaveru Felix (CCM), who wanted to know when the government will start to construct the Tabora-Kigoma SGR section.

According to Waitara, the Government continues to search for funds from different sources, including soft loans for implementation of development projects including the entire proposed SGR project and that from Tabora to Kigoma, measuring 411 km and the Kaliua-Mpanda-Karema with 316,7 km.

He said the Ministry through the Tanzania Railway Cooperation (TRC) continues to implement the SGR project from Dar es Salaam to Mwanza measuring 1,219 km. He said due to the high expenses of the project, the Government resolved to implement the standard gauge railway project in five phases which are the 300 km section from Dar es Salaam - Morogoro, Morogoro - Makutupora (422 km), Makutupora -Tabora (368 km), Tabora - Isaka (165 km) and the Isaka - Mwanza section with 341 km.

Waitara told the House that construction of the Dar es Salaam - Morogoro, Morogoro - Makutupora and Mwanza - Isaka is ongoing, adding the government is finalizing processes for procurement of construction materials for implementation of the SGR sections - Makutupora -Tabora (368 kilometres) and Tabora - Isaka (165 kilometres).

In June this year, the Government allocated 513 million US Dollars (about 1.18tri/-) for the construction of the SGR in the 2021/2022 financial year. Prime Minister Kassim Majaliwa said in March this year that construction of the second phase of SGR from the Morogoro region to Makutupora in Dodoma region covering 426km was on track and has reached 51 percent.

In mid-June, President Samia Suluhu Hassan laid a foundation stone for the construction of the fifth lot of the SGR at Misungwi in Mwanza Region.
