JNPT struck by congestion again
17 Jun 2008
JNPT is once again experiencing congestion problems with reports suggesting that anything between 20,000-25,000 import-export boxes are awaiting clearance at any one time. Growing traffic is said to be exacerbating the problem.
Significantly, congestion headaches this year started in March; these normally occur in June and July with the starting of the annual monsoon.
Inadequate rail infrastructure is seen as one of the main bottlenecks towards clearing container backlogs.
