To strengthen it infrastructure, New Mangalore Port Trust (NMPT) has taken two major decisions. The two decisions are: Finalisation of bids for constructing the berth No 18, and procuring two mobile harbour cranes. The proposed berth No 18 is likely to add a capacity of 5 million tonne per annum to the cargo handling at the port.
NMPT board of trustees met in Mangalore on September 27. The Mumbai-based DBM Geotechnics and Constructions has been awarded the work for constructing berth No 18 at New Mangalore Port. The proposed berth will handle bulk and container cargo.
DBM Geotechnics and Constructions quoted Rs 93.61 crore for constructing the new berth. The tender document for the construction of berth No 18 had estimated the amount for this project at Rs 110.24 crore.
