You are right, Paul W, I read in one of the local papers after the representations were sent in that the Department for Transport sent someone to Western Docks to look into the possibility of a rail connection. Possibly after my representation.
Which makes what Roger, I and others are saying more plausible.
Perhaps there may be a strategy to develop a future increase of port traffic so that it goes by rail rather than build a lorry terminal at T2.
To the best of my knowledge, DHB's original T2 plan made no provision for rail transport, but only for lorries and cars.
The subsequent idea of a rail connection may actually be the reason why DHB's privatisation proposal has not gone through for all we know.
