The South West of the city is set to be swamped by more freight than it can handle. Globilisations drawbacks are emerging quickly! Only decentralised distribution will be sustainable in the long term I think. Meanwhile concentrating freight handling and distribution is seen as economically attractive. However when the city melds with traffic, doing business in Sydney will be economically repulsive to many. Will we all lose in the longer term?
