Uttar Pradesh invests ₹7,064 crore to develop a multi-modal logistics hub in Greater Noida’s Dadri.
In pursuit of a $1 trillion economy, the Yogi Adityanath government is committing ₹7,064 crore to establish a multi-modal logistics hub in Dadri, Greater Noida. This development spans 823 acres, with 455 acres designated as the core area, aiming to be India’s largest logistics hub.
The hub, positioned on the eastern and western dedicated freight corridors, will function as a dry port ensuring swift transit of goods and raw materials. It will centralise services like container handling, warehousing, cold storage, processing, de-stuffing, stuffing, and value-added packing. The hub promises seamless rail connectivity with essential amenities including rail platforms, customs clearance, cargo segregation, truck parking areas, and expansive green spaces.
The project, progressing under a public-private partnership (PPP) model, is overseen by the Greater Noida Industrial Development Authority (GNIDA) and adheres to the National Industrial Corridor Development and Implementation Trust (NICDIT) guidelines. GNIDA has prepared a detailed project report for constructing the approach track and a rail-over-rail (ROR) bridge extending from New Dadri station to the logistics hub.
The Dedicated Freight Corridor Corporation of India (DFCCIL) has approved plans for railway tracks and terminal stations within the hub. Tender documentation for land acquisition and signaling processes for the approach track has been finalised. Concurrently, infrastructure development, including roads, canals, bridges, and utilities, is progressing in phases. Additionally, commercial and administrative facilities will be developed across 17.5 acres, with the rail yard and other projects covering 350 acres.
A detailed action plan has been outlined to expedite these initiatives and ensure comprehensive development.
