UNJLC North -South Convoy Khartoum -Juba
Document Actions
UNJLC is planning to resume light vehicle convoys from Khartoum to Juba, similar to the one from last June. The 1st convoy is tentatively scheduled to leave on November 3, 2007 from Khartoum. It will be lead by Nicolas Daher (UNJLC Senior Logistician) and will take approximately 6 to 7 days depending on the convoy route and unexpected delays.
The maximum number of 10 vehicles (Land Cruisers, Patrols, Land Rovers, etc.) allowed on each convoy is. We would like a equitable mix of UN and INGO vehicles. No trucks or buses will be permitted during the convoy, not even 3TN light trucks.
The routing will be as follow:
- Day 1: Khartoum to El-Obeid
- Day 2: El-Obeid to Keilak via Dilling (perhaps staying in Abyei)
- Day 3: Keilak (Abyei) to Aweil via Meiram
- Day 4: Aweil to Wau
- Day 5: Wau to Rumbek
- Day 6: Rumbek to Juba via Mundri if river is low and light vehicles are able to pass, if not - detour to Yei
- Day 7: Yei to Juba
