Challenges• Geological status of Roads and

Infrastructure• International Recognition of Dry ports• Transshipment facility and additional Port

Connectivity• International Guidelines for leasing out of

ports• Road carriage act and Regulation• Rail carriage act and regulation• Dry Port Management issues

(Managerial/Technical/Awareness)• Reduction in Import/Export Process 30

Way Forward:

• Cost of logistics and transit transportation forlandlocked countries is > 15% than coastal countries

• UNESCAP needs to address capacityactivities for managerial, technical and

buildingawareness

issues regarding dry port taking in mind of itsimportance

• Should conduct national levelactivities also

• International agency should focus on bringing outtransshipment,guidelines related to

Registration of LOCODE, Locate dryport leasing,port on the

international shipping map, etc.

• Ratification of Intergovernmental Agreement on Dryports
