A freight-rail and logistics service provider, QR plans to expand its intermodal freight business, an Australian market that's expected to double within 20 years. The facility will enable QR to access additional terminal capacity in New South Wales to serve increasing demand for containerized freight.
The parties plan to begin developing the terminal in early 2008 and start construction in three to five years pending freight demand.
