Gujarat's Hon'ble Chief M inister Shri Narendra Modi per-formed ground breaking of Dahej-Ghogha roll on-roll off (ro-ro) ferry project terminal at Bhavnagar district's Ghogha coast. The project that would connect South Gujarat and Saurashtra regions of the state through the Gulf of Cambay is being de-veloped by the Gujarat Maritime Board (GMB). The project is expected to be implemented in 15 months. After construction of the two terminals at Dahej and Ghogha, G MB plans to run two or three ferry vessels daily, to begin with, for which it would invite bids from ferry operators. Special vessels will carry loaded road vehicles, including buses and trucks, through the sea route. The EPC (engineering, procurement & construction) contract to Essar involves construction of both terminals. For Mo re I nformation visit http://www.vibrantgujarat.com/
