JNPT Port & Highway

JNPT - Jawaharlal Nehru Port [JNPT], also known as Nhava Sheva Port, is the largest container port in India, handling around 55% of the country’s containerized cargo, located east of Mumbai in Raigad district, this port on the Arabian Sea is accessed via Thane Creek.[6] . The hinterland connectivity both by rail and road is being further strengthened by ongoing projects like the Dedicated Freight Corridor (DFC), which will increase the existing train capacity of 27 to 100 trains per day; Multi-Modal Logistics Park (MMLP) and widening of the Port road connectivity. Its proximity to the Cities of Mumbai, Navi Mumbai and Pune; airports; hotels, exhibition centres, etc. gives the Port an extra edge to address the shippers’ needs, efficiently and promptly. It is but natural to see the rise in the realty projects in the surrounding locations.
