The rail line runs through the City and has brought goods and services to the communities in the Northwest and beyond since the community's inception.
Realized developments in secondary manufacturing throughout the region from Burns Lake through to Terrace requiring containerization will need to be properly packaged and prepared for loading at the container facility in Prince Rupert.
Add to this the potential of a break-bulk facility being developed in Kitimat.
Developing a distribution and warehousing business in Terrace, to receive and store imports and to store and containerize exports, has great potential. The well-developed trucking sector in the area would also provide an additional component to this business.
Warehousing and distribution requires significantly sized buildings and tracts of lands. This is abundantly available in the region. Some existing buildings may be easily and quickly converted to meet the needs of such a development.
