The government has embarked on a project to develop three One Stop Inspection Stations (OSISs) to reduce non-tariff barriers to trade which inhibit intra-trade in the East African region.
According to a statement by TradeMark East Africa which supports the project, the three locations have been carefully selected to capture the largest amount of transit traffic.
The stations will combine in one location activities of the Tanzanian National Roads Agency (TANROADS), which controls the weighbridges, the police force, which checks the condition of vehicles and the Tanzanian Revenue Authority (TRA), which carries out customs checks.
