Infrastructure and Port Planning - The National Ports Plan 2019 Update, detail future planning to expand the port to enable economic growth.

Positioning
The Port of Mossel Bay is positioning itself as the gateway to the Garden Route and providing improved facilities for cruise liners and ensuring a good port and city integration.

This will be complemented by a waterfront development on the western side of the port, however, outside the operational area of the port.

The port will also rehabilitate its rail infrastructure to tap into the flow of cargo through the Garden Route and into the hinterland.
