Table 3-3 Container Handling Volume at Chennai Port

The container handling volume at DPW (CCT) has been increasing recently, reaching 861 thousand

TEUs in 2015, an increase of 7.2% compared to the previous year. However, the container handling volume

fell sharply by 23% in April and 27% in May compared to the same months of the previous year.

The container handling volume at PSA fell to 667 thousand TEUs in 2015 compared to 724 thousand

TEUs in 2014, a decrease of 7.7%. However, it significantly increased during the period from February to

May 2015 compared to the same period last year. It was 69 thousand TEUs in April this year compared to

66 thousand TEUs in April last year, an increase of 5% and was 64 thousand TEUs in May this year

compared to 54 thousand in May last year, an increase of 19%.

These fluctuations in the container handling volume of each terminal seem to be a result of the

competition between the two terminals or re-arrangement of vessel services as the total handling volumes

have not changed much during these periods.

Figure 3-1 Number of vessels whose loading container can be received in container yard

(from 27 January to 16 February 2016)

Maximum number of vessels whose loading container can be received in container yard was 11 vessels

while the minimum number was 5. Many vessels arrive on Tuesday (10 vessels on average) and fewer

vessels on Thursday (1vessel on average). DPW terminal accepts around 5 vessels from Friday to next

Monday, around 3 vessels on Wednesday and Thursday. On the other hand, PSA terminal accepts around 6

vessels on Tuesday and around 1 vessel on Friday and Sunday. The transition of the vessel number per

every half day during the 2nd dispatch is shown in the Figure below.

Figure 3-2 Number of the permitted vessels to receive export containers

(from 30 September to 23 October 2014)

Many vessels arrive on Wednesday (11 vessels on average) and fewer vessels on Monday (7 vessels on

average). DPW terminal accepts around 6 vessels on Wednesday and around 3 vessels on Monday. On the

other hand PSA terminal accepts around 6 vessels on Saturday and around 4 vessels on Sunday and

Monday. There are some differences in the tendency of the number of vessels between the 2nd dispatch and

7th dispatch.

The Team studied the details of the changes in container vessels calling at two terminals during the 8th

dispatch as below.

and so on. The demonstration trials may have also motivated stakeholders to make efforts to reduce

congestion. For example, ChPT started to implement measures to ease congestion in cooperation with the

private sector while the State of Tamil Nadu improved the access road through road expansion works.

In this way the traffic congestion outside the Port has been largely alleviated. It seems that the measures

conducted by ChPT and the Team are working well and have been well-received by the stakeholders.

In addition, from the 1st to 8th dispatch, there were typically longer queues of trailers at the middle of

the week or on the weekend and smaller queues at the beginning of the week (Monday).

The results of the surveys on the degree of traffic congestion outside Chennai Port are shown from

Figure 3-3 to Figure 3-8 below (red color indicates queues of more than 30 trailers and orange color

indicates queues less than 30 trailers).

The queuing trailers inside the port starts from either DPW IN Gate, PSA IN Gate, or Port Gate No.1

(Exit). The queue starting from DPW IN Gate frequently occured during a period from the 3rd dispatch to

the 7th dispatch, but congestion was significantly reduced during the 8th dispatch.

On the other hand, the queues starting from PSA IN Gate continually occurred during the period from the

3rd dispatch to the 7th dispatch and it occurred even more frequently during the 8th dispatch. This was

considered to be due to the increase of container handling volume at PSA. The Team observed that the

queue, which extended almost to the DPW OUT Gate, obstructed the other traffic flow.

The heavy congestion starting from Port Gate No.1 (Exit) has not occurred since procedures by Customs

and CISF at Port Gate No.1 were simplified during the 5th dispatch. The enhancement of Port Gate No.1

during the 8th dispatch helped alleviate the congestion as well.

iii) Parking Place and Reason for Waiting

The Team interviewed trailer drivers of waiting container vehicles on 4 October 2014 from 8:00 to

10:00, on 18 October 2014 from 16:00 to 18:00, and on 19 October 2014 from 8:00 to 10:00.

Figure 3-14 Parking Place

1st (4/Oct, 2014) 2nd (18/Oct, 2014)

Figure 3-15 Reason for Waiting

Many drivers parked their container vehicles near container terminals and around the Hospital Gate.

Furthermore, it was observed that many trailers were parked along the peripheral road towards Port

Gate No.1 (OUT).

In the 1st dispatch, 45% of surveyed drivers were waiting for instructions from their companies

while that figure rose to 95% in the 2nd dispatch.

In addition, the Team continued to conduct the survey on parked trailers because the demonstration

trial for the restriction of parked trailers was conducted during the 3rd dispatch. The details of the

demonstration trial are described in 3.4 (4).

b. Survey on Traffic Congestion

The Team conducted a survey on the number of queuing trailers inside the Port for 24 hours every two

hours from 27 October to 3 November 2014. The results classified by time and place are as follows:

Figure 3-16 Trailers in Queue inside the Port Inward (27/Oct/2014 – 3/Nov/2014)

The number of incoming queues from Port Gate No.1 (IN) to the DPW terminal was 77 on average

and that from the DPW terminal to PSA was 69 on average. The former (the blue bar in Figure 3-16)

was approximately 50 at all times. On the other hand, the latter (the red bar in Figure 3-16) was

occasionally more than 200 and it fluctuated by day of the week or time zone.

The number of outgoing queues from the PSA terminal to the intersection was 125 on average and that

from the intersection to Port Gate No.1 (OUT) was 143 on average. The number of outgoing queues in

front of the X-Ray Scanning Center was less than 50. The number of outgoing queues from the PSA

terminal to Port Gate No.10 (OUT) was around 100 from midnight to 6 AM.

c. Study on the Flow of Trailers using Monitoring Camera at Terminal IN Gate

The Team monitored incoming trailers to container terminal gates continuously by setting a fixed

point camera around IN Gates of both DPW and PSA terminals during the 6th and 7th dispatch. The

monitoring was conducted in order to grasp the trailer flow and operational status of the terminal gates

on a 24 hour basis. The Team identified factors preventing efficient gate operation such as the

suspension of the gate reception, stoppage of trailer flow by parked trailers, etc. The details are

described in 3.7 (4).

d. Survey on Gate Processing Efficiency

The Team conducted site observation on the operational status of container inspection, document

check procedure, etc. in front of terminal IN Gates in addition to the observation by fixed point camera

during the 6th and 7th dispatch.

iv) Expiry Date of Form13


Figure 3-24 Expiry Date of Form13

Many trailer drivers at CWC carried a Form 13 with an expiry date of more than 3 days (57.4%). By

contrast, many trailer drivers at CFS carried a Form 13 with an expiry date of less than 3 days (52.5%).

The ratio of trailer drivers not carrying Form 13 or an expired Form 13 at CWC was nearly 9%.

b. Transportation Time from CFS to Port Gate No.1

The Team interviewed trailer drivers about transportation time from departure (CWC, CFS, etc.) to

Port Gate No.1 (IN) during the 2nd, 7th, and 8th dispatch.

Average transportation time was 28 hours (1st survey) and 40 hours (2nd survey) during the 2nd

dispatch. There had been no major improvement compared to the transportation time at the data

collection survey (October 2013), which was more than 1 day. The results are shown below.

Table 3-7 Comparison of Transportation Time from Departure to Port Gate No.1

The transportation time from departure (CFS, etc.) to Port Gate No.1 was shortened to 15 hours during

the 8th dispatch, as compared to 18 or 19 hours during the 7th dispatch and 28 hours or 40 hours during

the 2nd dispatch. The alleviation of traffic congestion is steadily in progress in terms of transportation

time.

6) List of Surveys on Traffic Congestion Status

The following list shows all the surveys on traffic congestion status conducted during the technical

assistance period at site.

No. of Trailers surveyed

Note: In the 8th dispatch, the team surveyed on 01 June and obtained the average transit time of 7:22 hrs.(no. of sample is 351.)However, no. of queuing trailers on the day surveyed was very few (only 75 trailers). The team evaluated that day was anexceptional day and the data was used as reference only.

1) Current Situation

Figure 3-35 Results of Simulation (Current Situation)

Traffic congestion occurred at Port Gate No.1 (IN, OUT) and in front of the PSA terminal entrance. Total

waiting time for traffic congestion and gate procedure time was 4.3 hours on average.

2) Demo1

Figure 3-36 Results of Simulation (Demo1)

Although the traffic queue did not occur at Port Gate No.1 (IN), vehicles remained inside the Port a long

time. Total waiting time was 3.2 hours on average (1.1 hours less than the current situation).


41

3) Demo3,4

Figure 3-37 Results of Simulation (Demo3, 4)

Although traffic congestion cleared up along the Periphery Road and the intersection, vehicles waited a

long time at Port Gate No.1(IN, OUT). Total waiting time was 3.8 hours on average (0.5 hours less than the

current situation).

4) Demo1, 3, 4

Figure 3-38 Results of Simulation (Demo1, 3, 4)

In the case of conducting Demo1, 3 and 4 at the same time, trailers entered Port Gate No.1 smoothly and

the traffic congestion inside the Port was reduced. However, traffic congestion occurred at the Customs

Gate in front of Port Gate No.1 (OUT). Total waiting time was 3.1 hours on average (1.2 hours less than the

current situation).

In the 3rd dispatch, based on the Marine Agenda 2010-2020 prepared by the Shipping Ministry, the Team

examined cargo demand, port capacity, major projects, and accessibility to the hinterland of the Chennai

Port. The team also conducted an analysis on congestion and proposed some solutions.

In the 4th dispatch, the Team examined the Business Plan for Chennai Port Trust which was published in

2008 and has served as the Master Plan of Chennai Port.

However, circumstances surrounding Chennai Port have considerably changed since the above plan was

published. For example competitive container ports (Ennore Port, Kattupalli Port) have emerged and coal

and iron ore are no longer handled at Chennai Port. Accordingly, the Business Plan, including a master plan

for infrastructure development, may need to be updated. The Team proposed that an advisory study be

conducted on basic policy for the master plan of infrastructure development, including improvement of

internal roads (widening, pavement, lane regulation, etc.)

In the 5th dispatch, the progress of the business plan was examined. A PPP scheme for infrastructure

development of the mega terminal could not be successfully introduced. As a result, ChPT is attempting to

construct the breakwater and channel using public funds. The Team also obtained information concerning

the utilization plan of the railway and widening of SH 114.

In the 6th dispatch, the land use inside Chennai port, Ennore port, and Kattuppali Port, as well as the

inland depot of the railway in Tondiapet, 5km away from the port, were examined. The Team also

exchanged the views on the direction of the study of the master plan and confirmed important issues related

to the study.

In the 7th dispatch, the current land use plan inside the port, and the situation of the roads and railways

were confirmed. Workshops were held twice in which important issues related to the master plan study

were discussed and projects that will enhance the efficiency of the port were proposed.

The main points discussed at the workshops were as follows.

1) Meeting the cargo demand and role-sharing among ports

2) Coping with the increasing size of container ships

3) Development of roads and waiting areas for trailers.

4) More utilization of IT, i.e. information service to the drivers via Internet

5) Better Connection to the hinterland of the port

6) Promotion of railway use

7) Review of land use

8) Environmental improvement and sustainable development

one on terminal arrival are recorded automatically according to the following procedure

i) RFID Tags will be placed on the front doors of all trailers. Trailer information such as trailer ID, its

owner, etc. are contained in the tag. RFID tags are purchased by transportation operators.

ii) In case of export container, when a trailer depart from CFS;

- RFID reader at CFS entrance/exit reads the trailer information from RFID tag and registers them in

CFS server.

- A camera at CFS entrance/exit takes a picture of the truck driver and registers it in CFS server.

- A CFS clerk manually enters the number of container. Then, the container information is linked with

the trailer information in CFS server and the linked information is transferred to terminal server

through NACFS server.

iii) When the trailer arrives at a terminal, RFID reader at a terminal entrance reads the trailer information

and retrieve the container information and the photograph of the truck driver. The information is, then,

shown on a display at terminal gate.

iv) In case of import containers, the procedure is just the other way around.

b. System 2

The reception procedure of a trailer at Port Gate No.1 is speeded up and Port entry/exit information for a

trailer is recorded automatically according to the following procedures. Harbor Entry Permit (HEP) can be

eliminated for trailers.

i) By applying RFID tag used in the system 1, the entrance and exit of a trailer from Port Gate No.1 is

recorded automatically.

ii) On arrival of a trailer at Port Gate No.1 from outside the Port;

- RFID reader at Port Gate No.1 reads the trailer information from RFID tag and register them in ChPT

server.

- A camera at Port Gate No.1 takes a photo of trailer number and shows it together with the trailer

information on a display in a gate booth.

iii) In case of outbound trailers, the procedure is similar to the above.

c. System 3

The reception procedure of a personnel at Port Gate No.1 is speeded up and the Port entry/exit

information for a personnel is recorded automatically according to the following procedures. Harbor Entry

Permit (HEP) will be replaced by RFID card.

i) A trailer driver and his assistants wear the RFID card around the neck. The personnel information

such as driving license number, photo, etc is contained on the RFID card.

ii) On arrival of a trailer at Port Gate No.1 from outside, RFID reader reads the personnel information

from RFID car. The system registers the personnel information in ChPT server and shows them on a

display in a gate booth.

3) Introduction of a Sticker for a Container Trailer

As trailer drivers who do not carry the proper documents are one of the causes of traffic congestion, a trial

was conducted with the cooperation of the private sector in which stickers were attached to trailers when

drivers possessed the proper documents. This was a good initiative which demonstrated the willingness on

the part of the private sector to cooperate in congestion alleviation measures.However, the sticker system

was soon discontinued due to management problems.

4) Simulation Model Analysis for Traffic Congestion

The Study Team developed a traffic simulation model and showed the qualitative effect of measures for

decongestion in the S/C. It is hoped that ChPT and stakeholders will continue efforts to alleviate the

congestion.

5) Effective Utilization of TVT Parking ( Demonstration Trial )

HEP (Harbor entry permit) was issued to trailer drivers at the TVT Parking located along State Highway

114, about 5km north from Port Gate No.1. Utilizing this parking space, required documents for drivers

were pre-checked as a demonstration trial. The area was also used as a waiting space for trailers to

discourage drivers from parking trailers along the road while waiting to enter the port.

6) No Parking along internal Roads and Establishment of Waiting Area(Demonstration Trial)

Parking along internal roads encumbers trailers as they move. Parking has been banned at some road

sections and a waiting area has been set up for trailers to wait inside Chennai Port.

7) Allocation of Traffic Officers (Demonstration Trial)

Congestion at the intersection in Chennai Port was so serious that traffic control was becoming

increasingly necessary. Therefore, traffic officers were allocated at key intersections to give instructions to

drivers inside the port.

8) Additional Gate for empty container trailers at DPW terminal

An additional terminal gate for empty container trailers was set up at the area of the DPW terminal which

used to be for the handling of iron ore. It has streamlined the traffic flow inside Chennai Port and

contributed to alleviating traffic congestion.

9) Pre-Document Check prior to Port entry (Task Force Activity)

Task Force Team was formed at the initiative of Chennai Port Trust to combat traffic congestion. It

consists of ChPT, Terminal Operators and CFS association etc. Before entry to the port, trailer drivers are

subject to a document check by the Task Force. They are not allowed to enter the port until they show the

proper documents.


63

10) Promoting Traffic Discipline among Drivers (Task Force Activity)

As one of activities of the Task Force Team, trailer drivers are instructed to keep proper intervals by traffic

officer while forming a line on the road toward Port Gate No.1. The officer patrols the road on a motorbike.

Traffic discipline of drivers is expected to be improved and traffic congestion decreased.

11) Survey of Terminal Gate Operation

With the cooperation of the DPW terminal, the movement of container trailers passing through the

terminal gate was recorded by a camera set up at the entrance in order to grasp the efficiencty of gate

processing. This survey was useful for analyzing the causes of congestion related to the terminal gate and

suggesting measures for alleviation.

12) Incoming Traffic throughput Analysis

The Team analyzed the processing capacity of Port Gate No.1, terminal gates and terminal yards in order

to identify bottlenecks and proposed measures for upgrading the processing capacity to attain the target at

each gate and yard.

13) Continuous Traffic Congestion Survey

The Team conducted a traffic congestion survey outside/inside Chennai Port during every dispatch. The

survey results were utilized to grasp the present situation and examine the outcome of efforts to alleviate

traffic congestion and so on. Findings were fed back to the study activity on improvement of Chennai Port

Operation.

14) Technical Seminar for staff of Chennai Port Trust and CISF

Technical Seminars were held for staff of ChPT and CISF by the Team when the bar-code reading system

was introduced as a demonstration trial. Trainees could learn how to use the bar-code reading system in the

seminar.

15) Introduction of Bar-code Reading System ( Demonstration Trial)

As part of modernization of access control procedures for trailers using IT, the Bar-code reading system

was introduced at the Port Gate No.1.

16) Introduction of Web Portal System ( demonstration Trial)

As one of the demonstration trials to alleviate traffic congestion using IT, Web Portal System has been

established to provide congestion information. Everyone can access the information on the number of

trailers passing through the Port Gate No.1 on an hourly basis using the website of ChPT.


64

17) Introduction of RFID System

ChPT has a plan to introduce an RFID (Radio Frequency Identification) System to attach IC tags to

trailers with the cooperation of related organizations. The system aim to increase the efficiency of cargo

handling management and gate processing by sharing information among ChPT, CFS and terminal

operators etc.

18) Widening and improvement of roads in Chennai Port

The widening and improvement of internal roads have been carried out inside Chennai Port to alleviate

traffic congestion. In addition, the traffic flow has been clearly separated.

19) Expansion of Port Gate No.1

Port Gate No.1 is the only gate for container trailers to enter and exit Chennai Port, but the lane capacity

was insufficient to cope with the number of waiting trailers. Accordingly, ChPT expanded Port Gate No.1

from 4 to 8 lanes.

20) Widening and Improvement of State Highway 114

State highway 114 is the only road connecting to the Port Gate. Widening and improvement works of

Highway 114 are ongoing in order to provide a dedicated lane for container trailers.

21) Development of Approach Road to Port Gate No.1

Insufficient road infrastructure is also one of the causes of traffic congestion. The approach road to Port

Gate No.1 has been widened and improved to improve the traffic flow of trailers.

22) Study on Direction of the Master Plan

The workshop on the master plan was held in ChPT. The Team discussed the direction of the master plan

and stressed the importance of infrastructure projects as well as the need to further alleviate traffic

congestion.

23) Strengthening of Partnership with Tamil Nadu GovernmentChPT invited officials of the Tami

Nadu Government to attend the S/C. Officers from Traffic Police and Road section of Tamil Nadu joined

the expanded S/C to assist with congestion alleviation efforts.

24) Activity Report of JICA Study

The Team prepared an activity report which details the current state of traffic congestion, analyzes

congestion trends, describes the efforts and outcome of measures to decrease congestion and all other study

activities undertaken at each dispatch. It is submitted to ChPT, JICA etc. ChPT will utilize the results of the

report to take further measures for decongestion.

The following tables show the decongestion measures proposed by the Team suggested which have been

taken inside/outside port and at the terminals. They are also classified by the causes and dispatch times

5) Allocation of Traffic Officers (Demonstration Trial 4)

Traffic officers continued to be allocated after the demonstration trial. Although just a single traffic

officer, security guard or a ChPT officer, was allocated at first, officers from multiple organization as a

task force team are allocated lately. The Team also observed that CISF officers were additionally

allocated during period of heavy congestion. However, traffic officers require training on traffic control

because instructions by traffic officers were sometimes ignored by trailer drivers.

6) Additional Gate for Empty Trailers at DPW Terminal

The implementation of the new DPW gate specialized for empty trailers in April 2015 was one of the

effective measures for the optimization of trailer flow. Separating the flow of empty trailers from that of

export container trailers has been effective because empty trailers often wait for job orders or proper

documents inside the Port.

However, the trailer flow has not been completely separated because empty trailers were still accepted

at the DPW IN Gate which was meant for export container trailers. This occurred because an empty trailer

could not exit from the entrance queue before entering into the DPW terminal once it reached to the DPW

terminal. Furthermore, the empty trailer flow and the export trailers flow sometimes crossed at the

intersection near the X-Ray inspection area after the implementation of the new gate. Further optimization

of the trailers flow can be achieved if these issues are addressed and the empty and export container flows

are completely separated.

7) Pre-Document Check Prior to Port Entry (Task Force Activity 1)

The pre-document check, which was conducted on the access road toward Port Gate No.1 during the 7th

dispatch, was one of the activities undertaken by the Task Force Team (which consists of ChPT, container

terminals, trucking companies, etc).

This document screening activity was similar to the one which used to be conducted at TVT-Parking in

2014. The document screening aims at removing parked trailers which are waiting for the proper

documents on the road. As the number of drivers carrying the proper documents actually increased for

export container, these screening activities have somewhat contributed to optimization of trailers flow

inside and outside the Port.

8) Promoting Traffic Discipline among Drivers (Task Force Activity 2)

The Team observed that traffic officers instructed trailer drivers to drive along a lane, keep proper

intervals, etc. during the 7th dispatch. The traffic officers were dispatched from trucking companies

organized by ChPT. Although, the Team had previously observed similar activities by the trailer union

and CFS association, it was the first attempt for ChPT to organize such a team by themselves. Thanks to

the instructions from officers, situation in which container trailers prevented general vehicles from

proceeding were avoided. Furthermore, together with the restrictions on trailers entering the city area

which have been enforced by the traffic police, the traffic flow along the State Highway 114 has greatly

improved. These activities definitely contribute to optimizing the traffic flow outside the Port.

stop after a few hours of consecutive operation. Computers and other related hardware will eventually need

repair/maintenance when operated for long periods of time but a department or organization that is

responsible for such support works has not been designated. The barcode reading error, which is probably

caused by a displacement of barcode on HEP, can only be avoided by periodically adjusting the alignment

of barcode printers which are used in ChPT pass section. The Team has observed that the real issue here is

not these failures, but the lack of an operation system to ensure continuous operation of the system by the

party concerned.

Therefore, the team recommended ChPT to set up a Working Group for sustaining the operation of the

Entry / Exit Control system. Running Rules of the Working Group are described below.

A-10

Attached Document

Definition and details of the works to be conducted by the Working Group

1. Definition of the System Objectives

The objectives of the system are as follows.

1) Simplification of the document check procedure at Port Gate No.1

The operation to record the log of trailers’ entry and exit is done just by scanning the Harbor Entry

Permit (HEP), which is far simpler than making handwritten entries. Furthermore, gate lanes can be

increased using the minimum number of staffs because a single staff can operate the barcode reader for

multiple lanes.

2) Strict control on the entry and exit of container trailers at Port Gate No.1

The entry and exit of trailers are more strictly controlled and checked using the system. The system can

detect the illegal usage of HEP by drivers and trailers as the entry and exit record can be traced in the

system. The statistical data for the entry/exit of drivers and trailers is accumulated and can be utilized for

improving the Port Operation.

Note: When the RFID tag system is implemented, entry/exit of trailer is recorded automatically by the

system. However, the barcode reading system is still required until the RFID tag base HEP is

implemented.

2. Operation Procedure of the Entry / Exit Control system for Chennai Port

1) Periodical Adjustment of Barcode Printer Alignment

The alignment of barcode printers used in HEP issuance at ChPT pass section shall be adjusted

periodically (e.g. once every three month). Otherwise, many HEPs with misprinted barcode have been

already distributed widely when the misprinting is detected at Port Gate No.1. The adjustment shall be

done by EDP section.

2) Document Check Procedure at Port Gate No.1

HEP of drivers, trailers, and driver’s assistants are scanned at the Port Gate No.1 by CISF staff and their

entry and exit records are logged in the system. The software of the barcode reading system shall be

improved so that the hourly summary of trailers in/out is shown on the data entry screen. Furthermore,

modification function for the registered data shall be provided for a CISF supervisor.

3) Supporting System and Environment

The following supporting system for the operation shall be established.

a. To establish an Emergency Contact Plan among CISF, traffic department, EDP section, and pass

section in the event of serious trouble. CISF mainly uses this plan and calls EDP for system failure

including PC, UPS, power supply, network, and software. It may also be used to call the pass section

for any HEP authorization issues.

b. To setup a regular meeting among traffic department, pass section, EDP, and CISF to discuss

enhancement needs, changes in the environment, system maintenance, etc.

c. To provide the preliminary training course on the use of PC including virus protection, PC


A-11

maintenance, etc. for CISF supervisor.

d. To provide a service so that the hardware / software engineers visit site periodically (e.g. once a

week)

4) Usage of information obtained by the Entry/Exit Control System

The information obtained by the barcode reading system can be used in a variety of ways. Some

examples are listed below.

a. To publish the real time and hourly summary of trailers passing through the Port Gate No.1 on the

ChPT Homepage.

b. To periodically generate the following warning reports

- Trailer and driver retention list

- Trailers with different drivers in entry and exit

- Drivers with different trailers in entry and exit

c. To prepare a statistic report on container trailer movement

3. Emergency Contact Plan

1) CISF at Port Gate No.1:

2) ChPT Traffic Department (Marketing):

3) ChPT Traffic Department Gate Team:

4) ChPT Traffic Department Pass Section:

5) ChPT Financial Department EDP Section:

Hardware:

Software:

4. System Expansion

1) Hardware

a. One set of PC/UPS/barcode reader shall be provided in every lane of Port Gate No.1. In total 9 lanes

will be available for entry/exit from Port Gate No.1

b. The same number of sets of PC/UPS/barcode reader as the above a. shall be provided as spare in

case of hardware failure. One of the spare sets can be used by the CISF supervisor for confirming the

data entry and data correction.

c. At least one set of PC/UPS/barcode reader shall be provided in every pass section office where the

HEP is issued. They are used to confirm the barcode is properly printed on the HEP.

2) Application Software

a. Date entry screen shall be modified according to the Appendix 1. This modification helps CISF staff

to generate the hourly summary of in/our trailers manually.

b. Data correction screen shall be provided in case CISF staff makes data entry error.

c. Daily summary screen which is identical to the existing hand prepared summary sheet shall be

provided.

D) Improvement of Synergy on Operation of Regulatory Authorities Concerned

Improvement of Synergy on the Operation of Regulatory Authorities Concerned

Rationale

Chennai Port Trust has been tackling traffic congestion issues for many years. The Team in

collaboration with ChPT has also introduced a variety of measures to alleviate traffic

congestion. Some of the measures have been effective for reducing traffic congestion.

However traffic congestion still exists inside and outside the Port and some measures are not

able to be implemented continuously. A lack of a sustainable system for implementing

measures continuously and a lack of coordination among stakeholders are the reasons for the

above.

Therefore, the establishment of a sustainable system is very important.

The Project on Improvement of Chennai Port Operation has a steering committee for the

purpose of discussing matters related to traffic congestion among stakeholders. The steering

committee plays a vital role for stakeholders to understand the project and share information

on traffic congestion.

After completion of this project, the steering committee might be disbanded.

Instead of the steering committee, a sustainable system that tackles congestion issues with the

collaboration of stakeholders needs to be established.

The Team strongly recommends the establishment of an enlarged steering committee for the

purpose of sustainable improvement on the operation of Chennai port.

E) TOR on Operation Rule for Trailer Entry Process at Terminal IN Gates

TOR on Operation Rule for Trailer Entry Process at Terminal IN Gates

1. Background The Team has identified instances of ‘Idling Time’ and ‘Suspension’ by observing the pictures taken using

the fixed point static camera and the site observation during the 6th and 7th dispatch. ‘Idling Time’ and

‘Suspension’ significantly reduce terminal gate efficiency. Furthermore, the Team has often observed many

parked trailers such as OOG trailers, empty trailers, etc. in front of the DPW terminal IN gate which also

lowers terminal gate efficiency.

2. Objective

Trailer entry process at the terminal IN gate shall be improved in order to alleviate traffic

congestion starting from that point. The proposed operation rules aim to reduce ‘Idling Time’

and ‘Suspension’ by eliminating parked and stopped cars in front of terminal IN gates and

improving the trailer flow. This TOR describes the operational rules and business flow using

the new operation rules.

3. Required Measures

The following measures shall be taken before starting the operation under the TOR (refer to

figure 1.).

(1) Road Improvements in front of the terminal IN gate

- To allocate space around the Survey Area, Customs Reception Area, and Gate Area by

removing curbs, etc.

- To implement an Exit Lane for trailers around the Survey Area

- To clearly indicate the No Parking Areas through the use of painted signs

- To allocate space in the Survey Area for 4 trailers to line up in 3 rows and mark the stop

lines on a road with paint

- To keep space for trailers to line up in 4 rows and mark the stop lines on a road with

paint

(2) Relocation of the Survey Area

The Survey Area shall be relocated about 130m forward.

(3) Full Time Allocation of Traffic Control Persons

One traffic control person around the No Parking Area and another traffic control person

around Customs Reception Area shall be allocated on a full time basis. They will be

responsible for ensuring that trailers drivers follow the operation rules.

persons, surveyors, and terminal gate clerks at all times.

(2) Trailer drivers shall proceed along the lane in order without keeping too much distance

from the other trailers. They shall not pass the other trailers or cut into queue without an

instruction from traffic control persons, etc.

(3) Empty trailers shall use the dedicated terminal gate (north gate for DPW and dedicated

lane for PSA). Terminal IN gates shall not accept empty trailers.

(4) Parking shall not be allowed along the access road to the terminal IN gate. Moreover,

parking shall be strictly prohibited between the Survey Area and Gate Area to ensure

sufficient space for trailer traffic.

(5) Trailers which are allowed to proceed following the container survey shall proceed to the

Customs Reception Area promptly. On the other hand, trailers which are not allowed to

proceed shall exit via the Exit Lane immediately. They shall remain at a waiting area until

everything is in order and then line up again.

(6) Documentation check by Customs is conducted after the survey is completed while a

trailer is parked in the Customs Reception Area. After its completion, trailers proceed to

the Gate Area for the reception procedure of a terminal. Trailers which do not clear the

documentation check by Customs must exit via the Exit Lane when instructed by a traffic

control person.

(7) OOG (Out Of Gauge) trailers which arrive prior to the CY-Open shall be allowed to wait

inside a terminal until the CY opens.
