Increased transport costs, rising road congestion and the challenges of transporting the largest containers inland are all making port-centric logistics more important to cargo owners and their logistics providers.
The Port of Felixstowe offers the widest range of shipping options – over 700 ports worldwide are served – the most comprehensive range of rail services, and the largest resident road haulage fleet of any UK port. The shipping, transport and logistics cluster centred around the port includes 1,200 businesses employing 12,500 people, providing access to a skilled and knowledgeable workforce.
Using the Port of Felixstowe Logistics Park as a base for port-centric distribution strategies offers users the opportunity to benefit from lower transport costs, improved speed to market, reduced environmental impact and better utilisation of transport assets.
MASTERPLAN – BUILDING SMARTER
All buildings in the Logistics Park will be delivered through a carefully managed, efficient supply chain that makes full use of standardisation and prefabrication, along with continuous engineering improvement.
Advanced prefabrication and material innovations will contribute to a smarter, faster development process with the smallest carbon footprint.
Buildings will be designed to minimise carbon footprint during the construction phase, levels of embodied carbon upon completion and to maximise energy efficiency throughout the life-cycle of the building.
