Caucedo terminal in the Dominican Republic enhanced
The Caucedo terminal in the Dominican Republic has ordered 38 Ottawa T2 terminal tractors. The terminal, run by DP World, also has a free zone at its disposal. It is located in Punta Caucedo, 25 km from Santo Domingo, which is the political and commercial capital of the Dominican Republic.
Recently, DP World expanded its facilities with 300 m of additional berth. The Caucedo terminal now offers three deep water berths, with a total length of 922 m. This latest order will bring the total number of Kalmar machines operating at the terminal to approximately 80.
The units supplied to DP World Caucedo will incorporate additional safety features including the automatic fire extinguisher system, which can automatically detect and extinguish vehicle fires in seconds, thereby increasing the safety of personnel and equipment alike. (fd)
