Improving their performance has emerged as a necessary ingredient for growth and integration into the regional and global economy. In Africa, this is recognized at the continental level, where program for infrastructure development in Africa (PIDA) has identified 42 corridors that should form a core network for regional integration and global connectivity. Several distinctive features appear to be necessary conditions for a successful corridor, namely (i) a combination of public and private investments to improve infrastructure, (ii) an institutional framework to promote and facilitate coordination, (iii) a focus on operational efficiency of the logistics services and infrastructure, and (iv) a proven economic potential. Reviewing the experience of an apparently successful corridor can help one learn the optimal mix and trade-offs among the ingredients and enable replication of success on other corridors. The lessons from the Maputo corridor can help the regional economic communities (REC), countries, corridor users, and development partners to better focus their corridor strategies to maximize economic growth. The present work focuses on three aspects of its revival: corridors as enablers of trade and economic development; improvement of logistics through investments and reforms; institutional framework adapted according to objectives.en-USCC BY 3.0 IGOAIRPORTSALTERNATIVE ROUTEALTERNATIVE TRANSPORTALUMINUMAVERAGE DAILY TRAFFICAXLE LOADBORDER CROSSINGBORDER CROSSINGSBORDER POSTSBORDER TRAFFICBOTTLENECKSBRIDGEBULK TERMINALBULK TERMINALSCAPACITY BUILDINGCAPITAL REQUIREMENTSCARGOCARGO HANDLINGCARGO MOVEMENTSCARGO OWNERSCATCHMENTCATCHMENT AREACONCESSIONCONCESSION MODELCONCESSIONSCONSUMER GOODSCONTAINER TERMINALCONTAINER TERMINAL CONCESSIONSCONTAINER TERMINALSCONTAINER TRAFFICCONTAINERIZATIONCONTRACTUAL OBLIGATIONSCORRIDOR DEVELOPMENTCORRIDOR SERVICECORRIDOR TRANSPORTDEMAND FOR RAIL TRANSPORTDEMAND FOR TRANSPORTDEMAND FOR TRANSPORT SERVICESDEVELOPMENT CORRIDORDOMESTIC MARKETDRIVINGECONOMIC DEVELOPMENTECONOMIC GROWTHECONOMIC INTEGRATIONECONOMIC MULTIPLIER EFFECTSEFFICIENT TRANSPORTEFFICIENT TRANSPORT INFRASTRUCTUREEQUITY INVESTMENTSFEEDER ROADSFIXED FEESFRAMEWORKFREIGHTFREIGHT FORWARDERSFREIGHT FORWARDINGFREIGHT RAILFREIGHT TRANSPORTHEAVY VEHICLESHIGH TRANSPORTHIGHWAYIMPACT OF TRANSPORTINCOMEINFRASTRUCTURE DEVELOPMENTINFRASTRUCTURE FINANCINGINSTITUTIONAL FRAMEWORKINTERNATIONAL FINANCEINTERNATIONAL SHIPPINGINTERNATIONAL TRADEINVESTMENT PROGRAMJOINT VENTUREJOURNEYLAND TRANSPORTLANDLOCKED COUNTRIESLANESLOADINGLOCOMOTIVESLOGISTICS COMPANIESLOGISTICS GROUPLOGISTICS SERVICESMAIN ROADMAINTENANCE COSTSMEMBER COUNTRIESMINISTRY OF TRANSPORTMOBILITYNATIONAL ROADSPARKINGPASSENGERPASSENGER TRAFFICPASSENGER VEHICLESPASSENGERSPORT AUTHORITIESPORT AUTHORITYPORT FACILITIESPORT SERVICESPOWERPPPPRIVATE OPERATORSPRIVATE SECTORPRIVATE SECTOR INVESTMENTSPRIVATE SECTOR INVOLVEMENTPRIVATE SECTOR PARTICIPATIONPRIVATIZATION PROCESSPUBLIC AUTHORITIESPUBLIC INFRASTRUCTUREPUBLIC SECTORPUBLIC TRANSPORTPUBLIC WORKSRAILRAIL CORRIDORRAIL CORRIDORSRAIL FREIGHTRAIL FREIGHT TRANSPORTRAIL INFRASTRUCTURERAIL LINKRAIL NETWORKRAIL NETWORKSRAIL SERVICERAIL SERVICE PROVIDERSRAIL SERVICESRAIL TRAFFICRAIL TRANSPORTRAILWAYRAILWAY CAPACITYRAILWAY COMPANYRAILWAY LINERAILWAY LINESRAILWAYSREGIONAL TRANSPORTREGULATORY AGENCIESREGULATORY FRAMEWORKROADROAD CONCESSIONROAD INFRASTRUCTUREROAD NETWORKROAD SYSTEMROAD TRANSPORTROADSROLLING STOCKROUTEROUTESSATURATIONSERVICE PROVIDERSHARINGSHIPPING LINESSTEELTERMINAL OPERATORTERMINAL OPERATORSTIMBERTOLLTOLL HIGHWAYTOLL PLAZATOLL PLAZASTOLL ROADTOLLSTRACKTRADE DOCUMENTSTRADE FACILITATIONTRAFFICTRAFFIC CONTROLTRAFFIC DATATRAFFIC FLOWSTRAFFIC GROWTHTRAFFIC VOLUMESTRAINSTRANSACTION COSTSTRANSITTRANSIT CORRIDORTRANSIT TRADETRANSPARENCYTRANSPORTTRANSPORT CAPACITYTRANSPORT CHARGESTRANSPORT CORRIDORSTRANSPORT COSTSTRANSPORT DEMANDTRANSPORT INFRASTRUCTURETRANSPORT INFRASTRUCTURE FINANCINGTRANSPORT INVESTMENTSTRANSPORT MODESTRANSPORT NETWORKTRANSPORT NETWORKSTRANSPORT POLICIESTRANSPORT PROJECTSTRANSPORT SECTORTRANSPORT SERVICESTRANSPORT SYSTEMTRANSPORT SYSTEMSTRANSPORTATIONTRANSPORTATION INFRASTRUCTURETRUCK TRAFFICTRUCKINGTRUCKING COMPANIESTRUCKSUNDERPINNINGVEHICLEVEHICLE TRAFFICVEHICLESWAGONS10.1596/21571
