A new logistics and freight yard adjoining Southampton Container Terminal is expected to give a significant extra competitive edge to cargo and haulage operations in the port.
The new yard and operation has been created in a deal between Southampton Container Terminal operator DP World and one of Southampton’s oldest and most established maritime and logistics businesses.
The yard is twice the size of the existing Shipping yard, which is outside the port. It is predicted that the short move and expansion of operations could at least double the amount of cargo passing through.
