As an effective measure to ease the long berthing delays experienced by Roll on-Roll off vessels at the Port of Colombo, SLPA, with the consultation of shipping lines and importers, recently decided to route all such vessels to the Magam Ruhunupura Mahinda Rajapaksa Port (MRMR Port) and the first Ro-Ro vessel operation at the port is scheduled to be carried out on 6 June 2012.
Accordingly, the vessel N4K Fricia from Japan will call at the MRMR Port with 15 vehicles for transhipment on 5 June 2012. She will be followed by Asian Sun calling from Chennai in India on 6 June 2012 and carrying more than 1,000 vehicles for transhipment.
The vehicles brought by the vessel Asian Sun will be transhipped from MRMR Port to Algeria by the car carrier Asian Legend on 15 June 2012.
