Glebe Island and White Bay

Glebe Island and White Bay is a key facility in the NSW transport and logistics network. It is uniquely and ideally positioned within the Sydney metropolitan area for efficient transfer of cargo between land and sea.

Glebe Island and White Bay is Sydneys principal centre for receiving, storing and distributing imported motor vehicles and dry bulk goods and has a total of 9 berths.

Glebe Island / White Bays 40 hectares comprise a dedicated motor vehicle facility with on-wharf Pre-Delivery Inspection capability to accommodate 5,000 vehicles; common user bulk dry cargo discharge facilities, equipped for self-discharging vessels using wharf manifold to pipelines, conveyors and adjacent storage silos; and a total of 1,119m of berth for general cargo and lay-up berth.

The location of Glebe Island / White Bay makes it the most accessible location in Sydney Harbour for rail connections and direct links with main highways. For NSW to continue growing as a major trading region, with its concentration of infrastructure, manufacturing capacity and labour, Sydney must provide for trade growth by improving the capacity of its ports.
