Normally the Dry Port is Container Oriented and Supplies All Logistics Facilities, Which are Needed for Shipping and Forwarding Agents in a Port. Benefits of Introducing Dry Port Concept to Sri Lanka - Minimized Truck Turn Around Time for the Domestic Exporters and Importers - Optimize the Land Area Inside the Port for Vessel and Yard Operation - Minimize Traffic Congestion Inside the CTs Affecting the Productivity of Vessel Operation - Minimize Traffic Congestion in the Colombo City Limits - Minimize Accidents - Minimize High Vehicular Emissions - Minimize Fuel Usage Container Trend Generated in Port of Colombo 5 4.5 4 TEU MILLIONS TEU 3.5 3 2.5 2 1.5 1 0.5 0 2002 2003 2004 2005 2006 2007 2008 2009 2010 2011 2012 2013 DOMESTIC 546,197 589,217 689,422 739,252 748,896 803,076 813,271 751,992 932,244 1,046,886 1,020,255 1,031,977 TRANSHIPMENT 1,147,762 1,287,469 1,461,435 1,646,501 2,249,500 2,468,661 2,785,422 2,633,055 3,095,589 3,123,828 3,064,767 3,208,117 TOTAL 1,764,694 1,959,336 2,220,525 2,445,297 3,079,085 3,381,242 3,687,338 3,464,297 4,137,441 4,262,887 4,187,120 4,306,206 Road Impact Assessment after Implementing Dry Port in SL Peliyagoda- Katunayake Road by 24% Colombo-Kandy Road by 14% Colombo - Galle Road by 7% Origin Destination Segregation through a Dry Port Establishment of Dry Ports in Sri Lanka Sri Lanka Ports Authority is planning to set up 2 Dry Ports at Peliyagoda and Thelangapatha and has identified 100 acres for the Dry Port Zone of which 30 acres will be developed initially. An inland port has a level of integration with the maritime terminal and supports a more efficient access to the inland market both for inbound and outbound traffic.
