PSA Chennai has outlined its planned strategy to secure its position as the region’s main container terminal.
It intends to do this by putting emphasis on the expansion of rail connectivity to connect all major Inland Container Depots (ICDs) from the terminal, in a move to attract additional services from maritime lines as well as volume migration from the region’s and neighbouring states’ top Beneficial Cargo Owners (BCOs).
In January 2021, PSA India broke its volume record for December 2020 with traffic of 257,347 TEU.
