Improved facility doubles rail capacity
DP World and NSW Ports are co-investing AUD 400 million (EUR 240 million) to extend the rail terminal at Port Botany in Sydney (Australia). The project – which will start in June and take two years to compete – comprises the addition of five new rail sidings to accommodate 600 m regional trains. The new hub will serve the port’s container terminal and its logistics park.
According to DP World the extended intermodal terminal will increase rail capacity from 400,000 to 1 million teu. Besides moving more boxes by rail, it will also reduce truck movements and carbon emissions and improve logistics efficiency. (ben)
