  Bob - perhaps but it is interesting that at least one of the consultants report DHB got questioned the economic viability of their proposals as have a minority of the board members. Nowhere else has managed to make inter-modal freight work effectively even without the disadvantages the Western Docks have.
  Yes the Eastern Docks was nearing capacity, but the current Western Docks proposals do little to address that other than move the fruit handling dock - without another berth and loading ramp being built capacity is still the same.
  This proposal is more about Twaggot massaging his ego than anything else and senior councillors and officers being seduced by the proposal of a swanky new waterside development that may never materialise.
