MEDLOG,
the logistics division of MSC is developing a multimodal terminal in the Paris
region. The so called, MEDLOG Inland Terminal Paris-Bruyères is seen as a
division of the Port 2000 site (TN MSC) in Le Havre. It will offer both rail and barge connections for the trade movement.
MSC aims for the new multimodal terminal to
handle 1 million TEUs annually by 2027 and create over 1,000 jobs.
Currently,
goods are predominantly transported by road in the region, but the new MEDLOG
Inland Terminal Paris-Bruyères will provide direct access to this key trade hub
by barge and rail, leaving only the last-mile delivery to trucks. This shift
will reduce road transport and associated carbon emissions in the supply chain.
