Tibbett Logistics to open second intermodal logistics terminal in Bucharest
Tibbett Logistics announced plans to open a second intermodal terminal in the west of Bucharest.
The new terminal is located within Europolis Park Bucharest, part of CA Immo Group’s property portfolio in Romania and will handle Tibbett Logistics‘ own block trains between the city and the Port of Constanta, as well as trains with swap-bodies, containers, semi-trailers and tank containers to and from Western European countries.
The new terminal will be developed in phases over the next twelve to eighteen months, with expectations that fourteen trains a week will be handled by second quarter of 2012. In addition to the terminal platform for handling intermodal units, Tibbett Logistics will also operate an 8,500 sq m warehouse within the terminal, with a rail siding for unloading conventional rail wagons directly into the warehouse.
Tibbett Logistics currently operates a separate 22,000 sq m retail distribution warehouse in Europolis Park Bucharest. In fact, it runs a total of five such distribution centres within a 10 km radius – employing over 550 people.
