Transport of automobile & auto components in
India
This case study illustrates the problems that can arise around ports, such as inadequate parking facilities, congestion and last mile connectivity issues and sharing of berth facilities. At the same time, the Government of India had as a policy objective to make India the location of choice for design and manufacture of car and car components. One of the policy measures implemented for this purpose was to create dedicated terminals outside of the congested existing ports and create better connectivity to existing ports.
