DP World launches automated gate system
United Arab Emirates: Tuesday, April 01 - 2008 at 13:33
DP World will activate its new automated gate system, 'Asraa', today across all the gates within the container terminal 2 at its flagship Jebel Ali Port, reported Khaleej Times. Container terminal 1 gates are currently undergoing installation of the system and will also be ready shortly. A special tagging device with a microchip fixed on a truck's chassis will be detected by sensors at gates fitted with Optical Character Readers and Radio Frequency Identification machines to record entry and exit through gates. Heavy vehicles will no longer need to stop to finalise entry or exit transactions and obtain gate passes. A one-off payment of Dhs300 is required for a permanent tag.
