The port has acquired a 125 meter wide corridor from Dhamra to Bhadrak which can accommodate two rail tracks and a four lane road along with service lines viz. transmission line and pipe lines. However, during phase-I, DPCL is constructing 62 km rail connectivity (single rail track) from Dhamra to Bhadrak/Ranital Link Cabin on the main Howrah-Chennai line. Trains will run up to Dhamra Terminal Yard (DTY) wherein handing over and taking over of rakes will take place between Indian Railways and DPCL. The railway line will be operated from DTY with the help of Centralized Traffic Control signalling mechanism.
