Inland Water Transport (IWT) in India offers a highly efficient alternative to road and rail, specifically for bulk and non-timesensitive cargo.
1. Significant Cost Savings
- Operating Costs: IWT is the most economical mode, costing approximately ₹0.25–₹0.30 per ton-km, compared to ₹1.0 for rail and ₹1.5 for road.
- Logistics Reduction: Shifting to waterways can help reduce India's overall logistics costs from 14% to 9% of GDP, potentially saving $50 billion annually.
2. Superior Fuel & Energy Efficiency
- Payload Capacity: One litre of fuel can move 105 ton-km by water, significantly higher than 85 ton-km by rail and 24 ton-km by road.
- Bulk Suitability: Ideal for moving massive volumes of coal, iron ore, cement, and agricultural produce in a single journey.
3. Strategic & Infrastructure Advantages
- Decongestion: Directly reduces traffic congestion and the frequency of accidents on national highways and overburdened railways.
- Minimal Land Needs: Unlike new highways or rail lines, developing waterways requires very little land acquisition, avoiding common project delays and community displacement.
- Remote Connectivity: Provides critical "last-mile" access to landlocked or eco-sensitive regions like the Northeast and Sundarbans.
- Multimodal Integration: New Multimodal Terminals (MMTs) at Varanasi, Sahibganj, and Haldia allow seamless cargo transfer between water, rail, and road.
