In Rwanda, the transportation sector plays an important role in the nation’s economy, accounting for 15% of the service industry in terms of GDP (the service industry to GDP ratio was 49% as of 2015). Because Rwanda is a landlocked country located approximately 1,400 km away from the nearest international port, the Dar es Salaam Port in Tanzania, Rwanda faces high transportation costs, which account for approximately 40% of import and export prices. This proportion is much higher than that of its neighboring county, Kenya, with 12%. Such high transportation costs have caused a bottleneck in Rwanda’s economic growth through private sector development.
