"The Port of Richards Bay has managed to clear all shipping backlogs. Terminal operations at the Port of Durban continue to improve," the state logistics group said in a statement.
However, work to restart the suspended Natcor rail line has been delayed due to remnants of looting activities strewn along the railway, Transnet said.
