SARA Rail
Rail Transportation
Africa’s only rail event hosted by rail operators from the region - Together we are Better!
About us
The SADC Protocol on Transport, Communications and Meteorology (PRCM), Article 13.13 specified the formation of regional associations for each Transport Mode – with the Southern African Railway Association (SARA) formed specifically to address the needs of the region's railways. The vision of SARA is to ensure that when it comes to supporting and bolstering regional intra-African trade, and assisting the region's manufacturers, exporters, and mining customers, that not only is rail the mode of choice but that it is seamless. The Association which incorporates regional railway operators provides the platform for all stakeholders, regional economic communities, international development partners, as well as, OEMs and suppliers - to play a role in enhancing railway transport at a regional, continental and global level. Don’t miss out on connecting with our railway operators during our annual SARA Rail Conference and Exhibition. Visit the website for more information. Together we are better.

Over the last three days #TeamUK have met several operators from South Africa, Namibia, Eswatini, Angola, Mozambique, Zambia, and more. In addition colleagues from Arup Transport Design International and Comms Design have had their own meetings with potential interested parties. The technical assistance package coupled with UKEF support has the potential to open doors for UK suppliers and we will be following up on this over the coming weeks. Huge thanks to Shaan Padayachy Radwa Sultan and all the DBT team for their support and finally thanks to Chimeta Mulambia of Birmingham Centre for Railway Research and Education (BCRRE) who is leading on the research work as part of the overall approach.

I had the honor of being part of a panel discussion at the SARA Rail Conference at the Sandton Convention Centre this week, and it was an invaluable experience. As we explored the evolving landscape of Southern African railways, it became increasingly clear how essential it is to understand and meet the diverse needs of railway customers. During the discussions, I emphasized key priorities: ensuring timely deliveries, upholding the highest safety and security standards, and fostering transparency and flexibility. With the National White Paper and Network Statement opening the rail network to third parties, we’re entering an exciting phase of opportunity and growth. The panel highlighted the importance of proactive communication, integrating customer feedback into design planning, and offering tailored solutions—especially for critical sectors like bulk transport and mining. #SARARail2024 #SARARail #AfricanRailways #GlencoreSA
