DG Connect has relaunched its much-awaited Ro-Pax ferry service between Hazira and Ghogha in Bhavnagar, Gujarat
DG Connect has relaunched its much-awaited Ro-Pax ferry service between Hazira in Surat and Ghogha in Bhavnagar on September 7. In 2017, Indigoseaways Pvt. Ltd started India's first Roll On-Roll Off Ferry Service under the brand name DG Sea Connect- A Detox Group Company in partnership with Gujarat Maritime Board in the Gulf of Cambay.
The Passenger cum Cargo service DG Sea Connect was a dream envisioned by our Hon. Prime Minister Shri Narendra Modi to bring India's first RORO/ ROPAX Ferry into existence which connects the crucial points of Gujarat - Ghogha & Dahej. It is India's first and largest solar-powered Ro-Pax ferry, giving greater convenience to passengers as well as cargo transit between Surat to Saurashtra and vice versa.
Hazira-Ghogha Ro-Pax ferry services between South Gujarat and Saurashtra by sea were temporarily suspended owing to technological and economic concerns. With its restart, the Ro-Pax ferry will transfer passengers and cargo between the two destinations in three hours.
The RORO Ferry reduces travelling distance between Dahej and Ghogha from 360km & 8 hours by roadways to 31km & 3 hours by sea and significantly saving fuel and being a cost-effective solution for people frequently travelling between the two cities.
