Kenya has been exploring development of sea-to-air multimodal hubs where cargo arriving by sea is quickly transferred to nearby airports, and then shipped by air to both regional and global markets.
Benchmarks of Dubai, Singapore and Colombo showcase how sea-air logistics have created global trade hubs in these regions. In Dubai, there is a tightly coupled port-airport corridor: Jebel Ali, JAFZA Free Zone and Al Makhtoum International Airport that are linked by a bonded road corridor.
