The Hambantota International Port has seen a significant increase in their RORO figures during the first 4 months of 2021, compared to the corresponding period last year. The first 4 months of this year saw 193,690 vehicles come into the port for transshipment as against 118,872 vehicles during the same period last year. 62,736 vehicles were transshipped last month, marking the highest volume of RORO the port has handled in a month so far. The April figures have topped increased RORO volumes HIP experienced in December 2020 and January 2021. This is coupled together with the focus on safety and quality as per the global standards of CMPort,” says Tissa Wickramasinghe, COO of Hambantota International Port Group (HIPG).
