The Kenya Ports Authority is transferring uncollected cargo at its Inland Container Depot (ICD) in Nairobi to nominated warehouses, in order to create space for new arrivals from Mombasa port.

Only a quarter of the 2,000 containers lying idle at the ICD have been collected, three weeks after KPA issued notices to owners.
