Summary:
The key needs of the Logistics cluster Kenya are 95% funded through direct contributions: $467,000 USD multilateral from Spain and 118,000 from USA (OFDA).
- From Jan to end of February a total of 483 MTs of emergency relief supplies were stored for 6 agencies, and 586 MTs of relief supplies were transported to the camp sites of displaced people.
- Storage facilities in the three main hubs are available for use by humanitarian organisations; 880 sq.m. in Eldoret, 800 sq.m. in Nakuru, and by early March 142 sq.m. in Kisumu.
- By Jan. 14th improvements in road access and security suspended the need for air support.
- The number of cargo storage and transport requests has started to reduce from the beginning of March..
- Due to improved road access, private transporters have resumed operations. Therefore the number of commercial and rental trucks available in Mombasa, Nairobi and the post-election conflict area is now at almost the same level as before the emergency.
- A need for storage and transport of emergency relief supplies is being replaced by storage and transport of transitional shelter & livelihoods supplies, which will be factored into the programme budgets of each humanitarian organisation.
- The Logistics cluster is collecting now pipeline supply information from cluster participants to forecast utilisation of the common storage and secondary transport service for the next two month period.
