First birthday for Teesport terminal

[ November 16, 2015   //   Chris ]

PD Ports has celebrated the first anniversary of its Teesport intermodal rail terminal. The first Freightliner train called in November 2014 following a £3m investment.

Business development director, Geoff Lippitt, commented: “We have invested significantly in expanding the intermodal services available at Teesport. Our partnership with Freightliner and DB Schenker demonstrates how businesses across the north can work together to fuel the Northern Powerhouse in finding ways to build a better connected north and make greater use of our rail network and waterways to move goods around the country.”

Further connections are expected with the Midlands and North West in line with market demand.
