APICD
An alternative ICD to Lat Krabang Avoid road congestions in Bangkok Increase truck turn-around time
Currently, exporters located in Ayutthaya, Central and northern Thailand have to pick up containers form deports in Bangkok, the majority of which are from Lat Krabang. Bangkok is notorious for its traffic congestion. The Bangkok is Metropolitan Office do not allow large truck to move in rush hour, decreasing truck turn-around time and causing delay of shipment.
Ayutthaya Port & ICD eliminates the problem by providing an integrated shorter haulage and scheduled self propelled barges service moving containers between factories and international seaport to avoid congestion in Bangkok. Each barge can carry 40-70 containers.
In 2006, Lat Karbang ICD containers throughput has reached 1.7 million teus resulting in severe congestions. Each truck has to wait for hours to pick up or retune a container at the site. Although its throughput decreased slightly to 1.5 million teus in 2009, based on the Thailand’s current growing throughput rate, it is believed Lat Krabang ICD will be full again soon. APICD serves as an alternative ICD ; our customers and logistics service providers can avoid congestion, road limitation and optimize truck turn-around time to boost their productivity through our integrated services
