The Smart Industrial Port City being developed near Paradip Port Trust (PPT) will house a number of projects across sectors, for which PPT has initiated work on projects valued at Rs 35.44 billion pertaining to the self-contained city spread over 700 acres of land.
Projects proposed include a multimodal logistics park (MMLP) of the Container Corporation of India (CONCOR), a four-million tonne per annum palletisation unit of Thriveni Earthmovers Ltd, a wood park, and a dedicated food park for edible oils.
The MMLP, for which land has reportedly been allotted, would comprise warehousing zones, container terminals and bulk cargo terminals. The park envisages facilities like inland container depots, container freight stations, parking, mechanised handling and intermodal transfers, all at a single location.
