The first terminal at Payra Sea Port is set to be operational by October, boosting goods transportation from large vessels and expediting activities at the nation's third-largest seaport.
For the first time since opening around a decade ago, Payra Sea Port has been able to accommodate a vessel having a draught of 10.2 metres owing to the dredging of a channel connecting it to the sea.
The government has decided to revise its contract with Jan De Nul, which was appointed for capital dredging of Payra Port’s Rabnabad channel, as the Belgian company has completed the work ahead of schedule.
