Rail service restored at Apapa Port


APM Terminals Apapa and the Nigerian Railway Corporation (NRC) have restored rail connectivity for containers to the Lagos Port Complex in Apapa, Nigeria. This move follows the acquisition of two new mobile harbour cranes earlier this year.

 

The two companies have developed a new standard operating procedure (SOP), which bridges the communication gap and ultimately leads to more efficient cargo evacuation by rail. NCR will start train operation with two trips per day and intends to increase the frequency in no distant time.

 

Containers will be discharged at Alagomeji Terminals in Yaba and Ijoko Terminals in Ogun State. Trucks can then be deployed to both locations to collect containers and return empties, which the NRC will convey back to the port. (ben)
