FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
Bridge-Building Logistics in the Himalayan Mountains of Northern India
Logistics Plus India Provides Logistics Support for New Bridge Between Sonprayag and Gaurikund
ERIE, Pa. (April 6, 2016) – Logistics Plus Inc., a worldwide provider of transportation, logistics and supply chain solutions, reports that its India Division (aka, “LP India”) played a major role in coordinating logistics for the successful completion of an important bridge in the Himalayan mountains of northern India between the cities of Sonprayag and Gaurikund. The bridge, constructed across Mandakini River, was completed in the record time of 30 days thanks, in part, to the logistical support LP India provided to the overall construction project.
The previous bridge had washed away twice within the past three years due to unprecedented flooding that began back in 2013. The new, more permanent bridge was sourced and shipped from a New Jersey, USA bridge builder. The bridge parts moved by container ship to Bombay, and then by train to New Delhi, and then by road to Rishikesh on container lorries. Transshipment by smaller trucks was required for the last leg to Sonprayag. In all, it was a mind boggling logistics exercise carried out to military precision by the LP India team.
“The site for the bridge posed many challenges,” said Sundreysh Sarup, managing director for LP India. “The history of floods demanded elaborate logistical planning and execution. The logistics of transporting a bridge to Sonprayag 250 kilometers from Rishikesh was no simple matter. It took significant planning and great coordination to ensure all of the equipment and parts arrived to the job site on time and intact. I am very pleased the project was a success, which will most certainly give a boost to commercial activity within the region.”

Logistics Plus global project manager, Frederik Geirnaert, recently shared another snippet regarding a large, project cargo shipment that he and the Logistics Plus Belgium team are coordinating. After months of intensive preparation and transport engineering, four (4) empty gas tanks were transferred by barge from their storage location to the load out terminal in Ulsan, South Korea. This is the first step in a move that will see these tanks being loaded to a heavy-lift vessel later this month for shipment to Portland, Oregon in the USA.
What makes this move quite special is, of course, the size and weight of the tanks. Each tank is about 95 feet long (29 meters), 75 feet wide (23 meters) and 53 feet high (16 meters); and each tank weighs 2,235,500 pounds (1,014 metric tons)! Now that’s a big shipment!
