Critical issues and redressalConstraints

CAPACITY CONSTRAINTS ON HDN ROUTES

Terminal constraintsOvercome by

Investments in Strategic capacity expansions

High density networkConsists of

Seven routes Six feeder routes

Carries 76% of freight GMT 71% of passenger and freight GMT

Accounts for 28% of route KMs
