Project: Port of Burnie Freight Flows Analysis (2004)

Client: Port of Devonport Corporation

Summary: The Port of Devonport Corporation sought to determine what proportion of current freight flows to and from the Port of Burnie were sourced from or moved to locations to the east of Burnie, that is, those that moved past the Port of Devonport. Freight flows to and from the Port of Burnie were summarised with some estimates of the proportion of freight that could be substituted to the Port of Devonport.
