Description

Royal Seaforth Container Terminal (RSCT) is a brownfield terminal located in Liverpool. It is an import-export terminal with a low transhipment percentage. There are additional empty depot / domestic flows at the landside, as well as interterminal traffic to and from Liverpool Terminal 2. Currently, RSCT is operating with straddle carriers, empty handlers and reach stackers, with manual Tug and Trailers used as horizontal transport towards inspection and Liverpool2. In addition, an on-dock rail facility is present for rail container handling serving the hinterland. The future rail volume is expected to increase and the rail terminal will be expanded. RSCT is reaching its capacity from a yard point of view and in order to address this Peel Ports intends to densify the yard to allow for further growth while simultaneously freeing up space for other activities. To achieve this aim, Peel Ports intends to procure twelve Automated Rail Mounted Gantry cranes (ARMGs).
