5. Survey Results
5.1 Products and Transport
In making the decisions about which mode of transport to use, the most important factors in the order of importance mentioned were price, speed, reliability and convenience. Majority of the products received and shipped were regular products, followed by perishable and refrigerated products. Products shipped and received were varied from bulk dry, full container, bags, boxes/crates and a very small percentage of bulk liquid products.
12
Product categories were sourced both locally and internationally. Typical origin and destination of the locations were mapped to the national railway network of SLR and tabulated in the database. Periodicity of shipments, were mainly daily or weekly. Majority of the shipments received and shipped were high value items and were high time sensitive. Majority of the respondents used hired trucks, followed by own trucks and freight forwarders to move their goods. Hardly any respondent used rail transport. Majority of them are somewhat satisfied with the current mode of transport they use. The main advantage of the chosen mode in the order of priority was availability of equipment, availability of physical facilities, reliability and lower cost. The main disadvantage of rail was no near track, followed by lack of wagons, poor reliability, too slow and lastly the cost. Half the population surveyed mentioned that the products transported need special care during handling and transport.
5.2 Opinion of Rail Transport Survey findings revealed that 92% of the participating companies are willing to consider railway as a freight transport mode if service quality improves. About 25% respondents identified specific tonnages and routes they would be willing to consider diverting cargo from road to rail. Those who were willing to divert identified, convenience with respect to building track siding near by, adding more rolling stocks, all day service rated (5 rating) as highly important as 68%, 57%, 52% respectively. Increased reliability and speed was rated as 72% and 46% respectively. About 30% of the respondents indicated a willingness to invest in rolling stock and/or infrastructure if SLR would be a reliable service provider. The majority of the respondents (70%) were not willing to pay additional tariff. Out of the respondents who were willing to pay 20% were willing to pay 10% additional tariff. The type of wagons that were mostly needed was container flat (62%) and covered wagons (66%). Products willing to divert were less than 10%. This low diversion may be mainly due to the current perception and experience with SLR. 70% of the respondents are not willing to invest and would prefer the current status quo in rail transport. Out of the respondents who are willing to invest 12% are willing to build the track, another 12% willing to invest in locomotives and wagons and 4% are willing to invest in both track, locomotives and wagons.
13
Survey also revealed that majority of the respondents (74%) had not recently approached SLR for any transport requirement. Only 26% have connected with SLR for their transport requirement. Out of the respondents who have approached SLR, 53% were provided with the service, 18% were not provided with the service as there were no tracks nearby and 18% were not provided with a response at all. Those who have recently requested rail transport were also asked about how they would rate the overall experience during the dealing with SLR, for which 10% said acceptable, 8% not acceptable, 2% are frustrated and another 2 % will not request again.
5.3 Suggestions for improvement
All suggestions for improvement received from survey respondents have been collated under five headings (viz. Infrastructure, Technology, Human Resource Development, Service and Business Model)
5.3.1 Infrastructure
! Improvement to tracks ! Availability of designated places to load cargo ! Strategic locations and easy access to main lines and appropriate equipment for
loading and unloading ! Container handling facilities to various destinations with provision to load and
unload cargo to train speedily ! Strategically located facilities, this could even be at CFS. For large-scale
proprietary companies Eg. Prima, the concept of spur or sidings into their facilities are recommended.
! Suitable arrangement for low volume bulky cargo. Eg. For coal transport to Norochcholai, explore possibility of using rail from Trincomalee to Norochcholai to save losses in the current form of coal handling
! Access to the main lines, loading and unloading facilities in main and center of cities (central, northern, eastern and southern)
! Track improvements with all transfer facilities at port in Galle ! Tracks are improved to a fairly reasonable level ! Extended tracks to Katunayake and Colombo port ! Build hub facilities at railway inter-sections ! Loading facilities at terminals
14
! Introduce reverse logistic model so that the objective will be maximized ! Create container handling hubs in Matara, Mannar, Kilinochchi, Kandy, Mirigama
and Polonnaruwa ! Improve the capability to handle 20'/40' containers ! Invest in more number of cargo handling facilities and railway tracks ! Increased speed ! Adequate infrastructure facilities for repairs and maintenance of wagons ! Tracks to be extended to production sites ! To provide capacity to handle reefer containers with tracks connectivity ! Port through major container yards with multimodal linkages ! Lack of facilities at the destination ! Modern warehousing including cold storage facilities ! Refrigerated wagons ! Double rail tracks island-wide ! Strengthen the railway bridges to carry heavy loads ! Loading and unloading facilities to be established and Manampitiya ! To have lanes connected to important places eg. Maho to Puttalam ! Loading and unloading facilities at the hub stations ! Double lines for the mostly used rail zones ! Railway hubs outside city areas which has the ability to store goods (containers)
such that they can be redistributed as needed by other means of transport (this will support to reduce congestion in city areas, created due to transportation of containers
! New rail lines from Maho to Puttalam ! Rail tracks to be extended to Trincomalee port ! Loading and unloading at Hunupitiya and other 44 locations ! Demurrage/detention free parking at SLR premises for imported containers
5.3.2 Technology
! Digital applications ! Single window operability ! Introduction of modern technology ! Low cost transport solution ! Tracking facilities to be improved
5.3.3. HR Development
! Management improvement ! Cargo handlers should be trained on how to handle different types of cargoes
15
! Labour related issues to be addressed by SLR ! Improve administration
5.3.4 Service
! Security of the goods to be assured ! Availability of services to be improved ! Speedy delivery of goods ! Increased reliability ! Better communication between Customs and SLR ! Increase frequency of rail operation ! Implement the suggestions made by us at the monthly meeting with railway ! Improve quality of service ! Lead-time taken to handle cargo and handling charges are high, this needs to be
relooked at to make rail freight transport viable ! Handling of goods with care needs to be ensured ! High hygiene standards of wagons to be maintained ! Seamless connectivity to cargo transport from own yard to destination and back ! Improve reliability ! Fast turn around time to be ensured ! Improve track and trace for cargo ! Restriction of pack size (25kg) to be lifted ! SLR should advertise services available ! Ensure a fixed time schedule ! Improve network ! Train to operate as per published schedules ! Higher speeds to be maintained ! Need to increase availability of tracks ! On line system for payments, deliveries etc., ! Single point of communication for queries to be ensured ! Adopt regional best practices eg. Nepal to India e-booking ! Mobile App updates to be provided to the customers ! Safety of products/goods to be ensured ! Proper procedure for handing over of goods to be initiated ! Facilitate online custom clearance
5.3.5. Business Model
! Public/Private partnerships and use of private wagons to be allowed
16
! Company is willing to consider investing on PPP basis to construct cold chain hubs at multi-modal locations
! Optimum cost model for high volume cargo to be developed ! Private management of operations to be allowed ! Open privatization of wagons to be initiated
Further user issues and recommendations received are given below. This user (EFL) has opted to use rail but had since withdrawn due to the below mentioned reasons. As the issues raised are important it is separately highlighted.
! Shortage of engines capable of handling a full train-load (18-22 TEUs). ! Shortage of rail flats (trailers). ! Unavailability of railway access in container yards. Therefore empty containers need to be
brought to Good Shed or similar place where container flats can be positioned. ! Even after bringing the empty containers, there are no cranes or top lifters to place the empty
container on the flat. ! Same situation is repeated at the destination location. ! Even inside the port, double handling was required where a shuttle service between the rail
track and the X ray gate entry was needed. ! Port top lifter charge - A separate handling fee for lift on lift off. ! Only place this was tried out was Prima Trincomalee factory since they have a rail track
connected to the factory. ! Paper work between SLPA and SLR is not synchronized. ! Domestic transportation in BCGS is mainly for bulk goods with heavy weight. Rate tariffs do
not suit light weight/volumetric cargo. ! Limited rail options available to be attached to BCGS. ! Time sensitive cargo cannot be transported due to various operational constraints. ! No accountability for cargo management with end-to-end ownership for ensuring safety and
quality of the cargo.
5.4 Overall View Out of the 52 companies surveyed the following 12 companies have shown strong interest to be part of this project and are willing to associate with SLR on freight transportation. Consultants recommend that SLR should carry out a detailed evaluation with companies who have expressed interest.
! Abans Pvt Ltd ! Ceylon Biscuits Ltd
17
! DRH Logistics International Pvt Ltd ! Samson Group Corporate Services (Pvt) Ltd ! Insee Cement ! Kelani Cables Plc ! Darley Butler & Company ! S A Silva & Sons Pvt Ltd. ! Richard Peiris Tyre Company Ltd ! Lak Sathosa ! Lanka Mineral Sands Ltd ! Ceat Kelani International Tyres Ltd
Brandix has done an evaluation of raw material delivery from their Ekala warehouse to Batticaloa factory and finished garments from the factory to Colombo port both by road and rail and rail had found to be more expensive and the idea had been abandoned in view of the favorable backhaul rates that road transport provider is offering.
Some commodities may not be suitable for rail transport in view of small shipment size, low annual volumes, short length of haul etc.,
The opportunity lies with the carriage of bulk goods and SLR should commence with government owned enterprises (eg. CPC, Lak Pohora, Lak Sathosa, Mineral sands etc.,) where they have influence. At present, goods trains are quite limited in number and in view of limited engine availability, priority being usually accorded to passenger trains.
SLR will have to shift to a new business model for freight transport as opposed to the current approach where passenger movement is prioritized over freight if they are to have a shift in the volumes from road to rail.
