Work on the Vizhinjam international seaport project is progressing, with May 2023 as the deadline, for the first mainline vessel to call at the port. The project requires around 80 lakh tonne of rocks for the breakwater construction, of which 30 lakh tonne have already been received. 12 lakh tonne of the 30 lakh tonne of rocks brought to the site were used in the sea during construction, while the remaining 18 lakh tonne were stored on the construction site. The large vessels will be able to dock at the port by May 23, 2023 and the barge will be operational by October.Contact: Adani Vizhinjam Ports (AVPL)Website: www.vizhinjamport.org
