DP World Launches Two New Dedicated Freight Corridors Across India

DP World has launched two new Dedicated Freight Corridor (DFC)-enabled double-stack rail services connecting Jawaharlal Nehru Port Authority (JNPA) with its inland container depot (ICD) network in the National Capital Region (NCR) and Sachana in Ahmedabad, Gujarat.

The first service, effective September 2026, connects JNPA with DP World’s ICD network at Pali/Rewari, Jhattipur–Panipat and Modinagar in NCR. The second service, connects JNPA with ICD Sachana in Ahmedabad, extending JNPA’s double-stack rail connectivity into Gujarat. Together, the services leverage dedicated infrastructure, higher speeds and higher capacity to move more cargo efficiently, with the potential for improved turnaround times between the maritime gateway and key inland markets.

The new services further strengthen gateway-to-hinterland connectivity by combining port and inland infrastructure within an integrated network across key consumption and production centers. They provide customers with dependable rail alternatives designed to support faster transit, predictable cargo movement and efficient supply chain planning, while strengthening connections between maritime gateways and inland markets.

Double-stack operations increase the amount of cargo that can be moved by rail, while greater use of rail supports a more sustainable logistics network by reducing reliance
