Chittagong Port Trade Facilitation Project. Asian Development Bank operates in Bangladesh.
The proposed Project comprises three main components with several sub-components to be implemented by three separate agencies. The first component will be implemented by Chittagong Port Authority (CPA), and comprise installation of a computer-based system for managing container terminal operations and document processing; improvements to the internal traffic circulation system; and construction of an oil waste management facility. The second component, which will be under the purview of Customs House of Chittagong (CHC), will comprise activation of ASYCUDA ++ computer system linked to CPA computer system and installation of container scanners needed to meet new security initiatives. The construction of an access controlled link from the ADB-funded port access road to the container terminals will be administered by Roads and Highways Department (RHD).
