Kaladan Multi-Modal Transit Transport Project that involves development of a trade route between India and Myanmar along the river Kaladan. The river Kaladan is navigable from its confluence point with the Bay of Bengal near Sittwe up to Setpyitpyin (Kaletwa), Myanmar, on its North. Beyond this the river is not navigable owing to shallow water depth and frequent rapids. Therefore, transportation by road is proposed for this stretch. From Sittwe Port to Kaletwa, transportation will be by waterway and from Kaletwa to India-Myanmar border transportation will be by road

Specifications
Kaladan Multi-Modal Transit Transport Project will connect the eastern Indian seaport of Kolkata with Sittwe port in Myanmar by sea; it will then link Sittwe to Mizoram via river and road transport. This project would reduce distance from Kolkata to Sittwe by approximately 1328 kms saving a lot of money, time and energy and also providing Northeast india a route to import and export goods out of northeast India. Salient features of the proposed Project are as follows:
- Kolkata to Sittwe: Sea 539 km.
- Sittwe to Setpyitpyin: Inland Water 225 km.
(Kaletwa) Transport on river Kaladan :*Setpyitpyin to India border by Road 62 km.
