  • India’s first rail auto hub will be inaugurated in Chennai.

  • These logistic parks and warehouses would be created in PPP mode to bring the required efficiency and investment but also help attract greater traffic to the Railways. With the coming in of TRANSLOC, the Transport Logistics Company of India, IR will be witness to a paradigm shift in our role as a national logistics provider. The focus will be on providing last mile connectivity for freight business and significant reduction in logistic costs.
  • At least 10 goods sheds will be developed by TRANSLOC in 2016-17.
