Scope of Presentation

Transport Sector – Present Scenario

• ONE OF THE LARGEST IN THE WORLD

• SERVES A LAND MASS OF 3.3 MILLION M2 AND POPULATION OF OVER ONE BILLION

• ENORMOUS GROWTH OF TRANSPORT SECTOR IN THE LAST 50 YEARS– VOLUME OF RAILWAY FREIGHT INCREASED FIVE FOLDS

AND PASSENGER KMS SEVEN FOLDS– LENGTH OF SURFACED ROADS INCREASED NINE FOLDS– TONNAGE HANDLED BY INDIA’S MAJOR/MINOR PORTS

INCREASED SIXTEEN FOLDS– AIR FREIGHT TONNEGE INCREASED 30 FOLDS

Areas Of Concern

FALLING MARKET SHARE (90% TO 30%) CAPACITY CONSTRAINTS ON HIGH DENSITY

NETWORK. CONNECTIVITY OF PORTS TO HINTERLAND

INADEQUATE. TERMINAL FACILITY’S INADEQUACY IMPEDES TRAFFIC. HIGH AXLE LOAD OPERATION ESSENTIAL FOR

CERTAIN TYPE TRAFFIC. CERTAIN AREAS STILL NOT CONNECTED BY RAIL. HIGH SPEED FREIGHT CORRIDORS NOT AVAILABLE

Options for Capacity Development

SEPARATE CORRIDOR FOR FREIGHT OPERATIONS MAKE THE PRESENT TRACK FIT FOR HEAVY HAUL (25

TONNE AXLE LOAD & HIGHER) AND HIGH SPEED OPERATION

MODERNISE IDENTIFIED ROUTE FOR 100 KMPH FREIGHT OPERATION.

MAKE TRACK ON IRON ORE ROUTE FIT FOR HIGHER AXLE LOAD.

ROLLING STOCK OF NEW TECHNOLOGY CAPABLE OF HIGH SPEED AND HIGH AXLE LOAD TO BE PROCURED.

MAINTENANCE SYSTEM AND FACILITIES TO BE IMPROVED .

Golden Quadrilateral & Its Diagonals

• High Density Corridor

(Golden Quadrilateral +

Diagonals) 16% of route

Km carries 52% of

passenger & 58 % of

freight

The study has been assigned to RITES which will take about 2 years.

Setting up of Logistics Park on DFC

RITES report suggested seven logistic parks.Western Corridor - Rewari, Ahmedabad, Vapi,

Navi MumbaiEastern Corridor - Kanpur, Ludhiana &

DurgapurThe logistics park operation will be done through PPP

model.Logistics Park to be multimodal operating on hub and

spoke principle leveraging higher speeds & long leads achievable on DFCC.
