The site also benefits from connectivity to the Concor-operated dry port and direct access to the Eastern and Western Dedicated Freight Corridors, enabling high-speed cargo movement. Planned features include cargo handling yards, modern warehousing, a skill development centre, and comprehensive logistics services to support cargo terminal operations.
