Bahraini logistics zone work underway

Sheikh Daij bin Salman Al Khalifa, chairman of Bahrain's General Organisation for Sea Ports, has said work on the multi-million dinar Bahrain Logistics Zone will start next month at Khalifa bin Salman Port complex in Hidd. "The hi-tech equipment includes four very large Post-Panamax gantry cranes, considered to be among the best available in the region, as well as rubber tyre gantries," Sheikh Daij said. Construction of the complex, which has four times the capacity of the old port, should be completed by the end of next year.
