The Mumbai Monorail project was implemented by the Mumbai Metropolitan Region Development Authority along with a consortium of Mumbai based conglomerate Larsen & Toubro and the Malaysia infrastructure firm Scomi Engineering Bhd. CNC Freight collaborated with our Mumbai agent for the delivery of 3 sets of Monorail Cars to Mumbai. Our scope involved packing works, container stuffing and direct delivery from shipper’s factory up to container vessel.
Due to the monorail car height of 4.80m, arrangements were made to stuff the cargo within port premises. Two custom made spreader bars form shipper were used fr tandem lifting to ensure lift stability and no damage to the car bodies. Close co-ordination was required with port authorities as direct delivery was involved.
A Tale of Transporting Three Trains
The Mumbai Monorail project was implemented by the Mumbai Metropolitan Region Development Authority along with a consortium of Mumbai based conglomerate Larsen & Toubro and the Malaysia infrastructure firm Scomi Engineering Bhd. We collaborated with our Mumbai agent to deliver three sets of monorail cars to Mumbai. We were to pack, place in to the container and deliver it from our shipper’s factory to the container vessel.
The monorail car’s height stood at 4.8 meters. So, arrangements had to be made to stuff the cargo within the port premises. Two custom made spreader bars were used for tandem lifting to ensure stability and making sure no damage occurred to the car bodies. We coordinated closely with the port authorities since direct delivery was involved.
