JNPA says container gate congestion cleared after vessel bunching

Jawaharlal Nehru Port Authority’s trade advisory says export cargo for more than 15 vessels reached terminal gates in a concentrated period on 2–3 October, temporarily delaying container-trailer entry and exit. JNPA and terminal operators coordinated extra measures with Container Freight Stations and local traffic authorities; the port says movement returned to normal on 4 October. The advisory, dated 6 October and listed by JNPA on 7 October, reports no congestion at terminal gates, a port-wide average truck turnaround of 1.47 hours, and yard occupancy down from 66.89% on 2 October to 52.61% by 6 October. All operational figures are those reported by JNPA.
