Gujarat govt, Adani sign pact for multi-modal logistics park

Adani Ports and Special Economic Zone Ltd (APSEZ) and the Gujarat government signed a memorandum of understanding (MoU) last week, for the construction of what is slated as India's largest multi-modal logistics park.

The park which is spread over 1,450 acre at Virochan Nagar, close to the auto hub of Sanand, is expected to attract investments worth Rs 50,000 crore in the transport and logistics space.

The project's construction will begin within six months post the necessary statutory approvals, while the completion is expected within three years by 2023.

According to a statement by the Gujarat government, the park will have e-commerce and BTS facilities spread across 3.8 million sq ft, bonded warehouses in 900,000 sq ft, temperature and palletised facilities across 60,000 sq ft and grade-A palletised facilities in 400,000 sq ft.
