BNSF Railway Co. yesterday announced its newest logistics center — the Logistics Center North Houston at Cleveland in Texas.

Once completed, the rail-served development is designed to help businesses increase their reach and speed to the Houston market and surrounding area, BNSF officials said in a press release.

 The 1,100-acre business park is located next to Interstate 69 and State Highway 105, which will provide "unrestricted access to the greater Houston area," they said. The park is capable of handling multiple commodities offering a rail-served site that can be customized to fit customers' needs. The facility features more than 20 new customer sites and can serve both manifest mixed freight and unit train single commodity shippers.

Like other BNSF Logistics Centers, shippers locating at North Houston can save nine months or more of development time and expense, BNSF officials said.

"BNSF’s Economic Development team strategically selects logistics center locations for the convergence of rail and road at underserved, key growing markets," said Colby Tanner, BNSF assistant vice president, economic development. "When our customers utilize the knowledge and expertise of our economic development team, they can expect to save significant time and money when locating their facilities at these prime locations."
