- Abstract
- <p>The traffic volumes for Lapsset for the four horizons. Their are four other horizons by which one can visualize the status of the Lapsset Corridor Trade Volume. The other horizons are; 1. 2017 2. Short Term(2020 to 2024) 3. Medium Term (2025 to 2030) 4. Medium Term (2030 to 2050)</p>

- Purpose
- <p>Estimating Transport Demand: To forecast future demand for transport infrastructure along the trans-border IGAD corridors we use a Trade: GDP multiplier to estimate the growth in future trade flows in the IGAD member states that comprise the corridor, which is then converted into freight traffic volume (measured in tons).</p>

- Supplemental Information
- <p>Intra-regional trade flows between IGAD member states are relatively low in comparison to other RECs at around $2.7 billion compared to $9.15 billion for ECOWAS, and $33.9 billion for SADC, though higher than ECCAS at $1.4 billion . As Figure 2-6 shows, the volume of intra-regional trade increased significantly between 2005 and 2011, though growth has since plateaued slightly, while Figure 2-2 shows that the share of trade between IGAD member states compared with trade outside the region has increased steadily from 10% in 2005 to 17% in 2016 and is projected to reach 28% by 2030. Linear extrapolation projects future intra-regional trade of around $5 billion, while a more conservative forecast estimate is just less than $4 billion – either way this represents a significant increase.</p>
