Indian Railways expects to commission dedicated freight corridors along eastern and western parts over the next five years.
“We will commission eastern and western dedicated freight corridors by March 2017,’’ Mr H.D. Gujrati, Executive Director of Railway Board, said on Tuesday.
He was here to address a logistics seminar organised by the Confederation of Indian Industry.
Freight corridors in the East will cover Dankuni in West Bengal to Dadri in Uttar Pradesh. The western corridor will connect Tughlakabad with Jawaharlal Nehru Port in Maharashtra.
