Tenders invited for new ILC at Enfield

The search for tenants and operators of Sydney’s newest freight terminal facility, Sydney Ports Corporation’s Intermodal Logistics Centre (ILC) at Enfield, has begun.

"Request for Proposals” (RFP) from private sector operators and tenants for the Enfield facility opened on 26 November. Construction is due to commence in late 2009.

The $150 million development on the 60 hectare former Enfield Marshalling Yards site will double Sydney’s current intermodal capacity.

When fully operational, the ILC will include:

  • a 12 hectare terminal catering for up to 300,000 containers per annum to be moved by rail to and from Port Botany;
  • 8 hectares of empty container storage;
  • 70,000 square metres of distribution centre/warehousing; and
  • up to 44,000 square metres of light industrial/commercial floor space.

The development of the ILC will bring a range of benefits to the logistics chain including helping move more containers closer to their final destination by rail in a way that is more efficient and environmentally friendly.

Industry has welcomed this initiate and is keenly anticipating the opportunity.

Sydney Ports expect to have some quality submissions from operators and tenants who want to be a part of this significant development.

The RPF process will close at the end of March 2009.
