Information About

Jawaharlal Nehru Port Trust




It is well connected to major highways and rail networks in India. The closest suburban railhead is CBD Belapur . The port handles 65% of India's container traffic has a Berthing period of 37 hours which is considered to be very long.

JNPT encompasses an area of 10 sq km but access roads are poor with only a two lane road servicing it which is often in a bad shape miring many trucks in the slush. New terminals are to be set up to alleviate the current problems, but it would only be ready by 2008 .
