India’s largest logistics hub coming up in Dadri

The hub will be covering an area of 823 acres, with 455 acres being the core development area.

Under this, developments are in progress for commercial and administrative facilities spanning 17.5 acres, along with a rail yard and additional projects covering 350 acres. A detailed action plan has been designed, in accordance with Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath’s directives, aiming to expedite all the initiatives.

The action plan aims to transform the Dadri multi-modal logistics hub into a world-class freight handling facility. Functioning as a dry port, it will ensure the swift transit of goods and raw materials. This ambitious project is set to become India’s largest logistics hub.

Located on the eastern and western dedicated freight corridors, the multi-modal logistics hub of Dadri, will serve as a central hub for services including container handling, warehousing, cold storage, processing, de-stuffing, stuffing, and value-added packing.

Providing seamless rail connectivity, it will include essential amenities such as rail platforms, customs clearance facilities, cargo segregation areas, truck parking zones, and extensive green spaces.

The development of the MMLH in Dadri is advancing under the Public-Private Partnership (PPP) model, overseen by the Greater Noida Industrial Development Authority and adhering to the guidelines of the National Industrial Corridor Development and Implementation Trust (NICDIT).

The Greater Noida Industrial Development Authority has prepared the Master Detailed Project Report (DPR) for constructing the approach track and Rail Over Rail (ROR) bridge, extending from New Dadri station to the MMLH boundary. Meanwhile, the Dedicated Freight Corridor Corporation of India (DFCCIL) has approved the DPR for the construction of railway tracks and terminal stations within the MMLH. The tender documentation for land acquisition and signaling processes for the approach track has also been finalized.

Simultaneously, the development of trunk infrastructure, including boundary work, roads, canals, bridges, utility relocation, and water and power supply, is progressing through various implementation phases.
