Adani Gangavaram Port, the deepest and one of the most modern ports in India has inaugurated its new railway crew lobby with crew management system (CMS) facility at its receipt and dispatch yard to improve cargo handling efficiency.

The state-of-the-art lobby includes a dedicated Crew Controller Office and well-equipped rest rooms with amenities for both male and female railway employees, the company said in a statement.

This strategic investment by Adani Gangavaram Port aims to significantly enhance cargo handling, storage, and dispatch operations, it said.

The facility was inaugurated by Manoj Kumar Sahoo, DRM, Waltair Division, East Coast Railway, in the presence of the CEO of Adani Gangavaram Port and senior officials from the port and the railway sector.

By enabling railway crews to directly take charge of loaded trains from the port’s receipt and dispatch yard, this facility will streamline operations, minimise delays, and increase crew availability and mobility, the company noted.

“The facility indicates a vital moment in our commitment to operational excellence and the well-being of our valued railway crew. This state-of-the-art facility expresses our dedication to enhancing safety, comfort, and efficiency within our operations,” Adani Gangavaram Port spokesperson said.

By providing a modern and well-equipped space for our crew to rest and prepare, we empower them to perform at their best, ensuring the safe and timely movement of goods across our network, the spokesperson said, adding that this investment underscores the company’s focus on continuous improvement and the commitment to playing a vital role in India’s thriving logistics sector.
