Shortcomings seen during Visit

Large area is not being utilized (800 hectare is unused)
Road to port gets jammed up and creates a backlog of cargo
Draft is not adequate to accommodate the largest ships (12.5m)
Lack of transshipment Facilities

Suggestions

Use unutilized area of port to create additional storage space

Create additional container terminals

Increase draft depth to increase transshipment and lower costs using economies of scale

Create additional terminal for domestic goods

Increased rail and road connectivity

Create logistics park in vicinity of JNPT

Takeaways from the Visit
