Container Corporation of India (Concor) is developing a Multi Modal Logistics Park (MMLP) in Gujarat. It will be spread across nearly 150 acres of land and is being developed at a cost of Rs. 500 crore. The MMLP being developed at Varnama village, nearly 20 km from Vadodara, is also Concor’s first Gati Shakti Multi Modal Cargo Terminal. The facility is ideally located on the Mumbai-Delhi main line route and will also be close to National Highway (NH) 8.

“The project was envisaged in 2014. Due to land acquisition-related issues and the Covid-19 pandemic, the project was delayed. Now, work has almost completed. We are planning to inaugurate the MMLP by the second week of July,” Rajat Gupta, in-charge of the MMLP, said. The Gujarat state land acquisition division and the revenue department have assisted Concor in purchasing the land. Till now, the PSU has spent `350 crore which includes land acquisition expenses, construction of the entire terminal, MMLP, funding of two railway bridge extensions and the Varnama railway station yard. Another Rs.150 crore will be spent for connectivity to the DFC Interchange Yard and development of the approach road. An ICD is being developed on nearly 30,000 sq m land (7.20 acre), is also part of the upcoming MMLP project.
