Peel’s strategy is to create a fully<br />

integrated logistics platform by<br />

combining the Port of Liverpool and<br />

Manchester Ship Canal, stretching<br />

from Liverpool2, the new deep-water<br />

container terminal on the River Mersey,<br />

into the heart of Manchester along the<br />

Manchester Ship Canal.<br />

Peel will develop a number of logistics<br />

hubs, including Port Bridgewater (near<br />

Ellesmere Port) Port Warrington and Port<br />

Salford. All locations will be connected<br />

by water by the regular ship service<br />

operated by Peel Ports and will fully<br />

integrate freight by rail and road.<br />

Liverpool2 will reduce the cost of<br />

international freight to exporters and<br />

importers in the northern half of the UK,<br />

whilst the logistics hubs along the banks<br />

of the Manchester Ship Canal allow<br />

<br />

centric distribution in the heart of the<br />

UK population.<br />

With ten motorways within ten miles<br />

of this integrated waterway, each<br />

terminal rail-linked with up to nine<br />

services a day between the Port<br />

of Liverpool and Ireland, this is an<br />

unbeatable proposition for shipping<br />

lines, forwarders and cargo owners.<br />
