APM Terminals start Callao project

Located adjacent to the port, the historic structures of the old station will be removed and relocated in Callao.

“In macro terms, this work will improve competitiveness for all activities of Peru and to generate more jobs and more investment and, therefore, social inclusion, which is the goal we are pursuing with this government,” said Peru’s Minister of Transport and Communications of Peru, Carlos Paredes, who with executives from APMT Callao started the demolition.

Henrik Kristensen, APM Terminals managing director, stated “APMT Callao is bringing the latest generation of ship-to-shore (STS) cranes and eco-friendly electric rubber tyred gantry (RTG) cranes to this phase. Investing in four 4 Super post-Panamax cranes, with 23 container outreach, and 12 Electric RTG cranes is a clear commitment to develop Callao as a strategic, regional hub to generate more business for the country through a world-class, eco-friendly port”.
