The new Tabora Airport terminal is 98% complete and set to begin operation. It accommodates 120 passengers at a time, includes offices and business areas, and strengthens regional transport infrastructure.
Transport Minister Prof. Makame Mbarawa inspected and visited the terminal, expressing satisfaction with the progress. The modern facility, constructed by the Government at a cost of TZS 27.93 billion, is designed to serve 120 passengers at a time. The terminal also includes commercial shops.
During his visit, Prof. Mbarawa said he deliberately began his inspection itinerary in Tabora because of the region’s strategic importance. “I have chosen to start my visit in Tabora because it is a strategic region. Railways from Makutupora to Tabora, Isaka, Mwanza, and from Tabora to Uvinza, Bunjumbura to Congo all make Tabora a hub for international transport,” he said. He added that completing the new terminal is an important step for economic growth and the development of Tanzania’s aviation sector. Representing the Regional Commissioner, Tabora District Commissioner Pendo Wella thanked the President of the United Republic of Tanzania for the project and assured that the regional authorities and citizens will maintain it properly to benefit local residents and investors.
