SU-T1105 : Support for Improving Transport Logistics and Competitiveness in Suriname

The main objective of the operation is to increase the competitiveness and productivity of Suriname by improving the logistics performance that is key to the agricultural sector. This is to be achieved through three components that are aimed at tackling the most important bottlenecks regarding logistics performance and institutional strengthening. Specifically, the project aims to identify: (i) systems, equipment and infrastructure to improve quality and efficiency of the infrastructure and operations of the port; (ii) sections of road networks related to the port to lower logistics costs, particularly transportation costs, travel times, improve safety and climate resilience; and (iii) provide a framework for institutional strengthening to improve transport sector planning capacity.
