This is a true multimodal logistics terminal as it also boasts a landing craft pocket and wharf for littoral transport operations, a helipad(under construction) for aircraft up to Chinook CH-47 and road train access.

It is ideal for heavy cargo and crane operations with a large cargo laydown area connecting to the ramp.
