London Gateway

London Gateway is a development on the north bank of the River Thames in Thurrock, Essex, 20 miles (32 km) east of central London. It comprises a new deep-water port, which is able to handle the biggest container ships in the world, as well as one of Europe’s largest logistics parks, providing access by road and railways to London and the rest of Great Britain.
The project, being undertaken by DP World, significantly increases the capabilities of the Port of London in handling container shipping,〔 to help meet the growing demand for container handling at Britain's ports. Construction began in February 2010,〔 and is expected to take several years, with the port and logistics park being completed in stages. The first phase of the port opened for business on 6 November 2013 with the docking of the 58,000-tonne ''MOL Caledon'', loaded with fruit and wine from South Africa.
==Plan==
The plan for London Gateway is based on simple logistics. In 2011 the ports of Felixstowe and Southampton were the first- and second-largest ports by container traffic in the UK, with the Port of London third. London Gateway is highly automated, and able to stay open in all weathers, unlike Felixstowe and Southampton.〔 Goods for London unloaded at Felixstowe and Southampton must be transported by road using heavy goods vehicles to localised distribution centres, then re-sorted and carried on vans to their final destination within London. Gateway, close to London and with suitable on-site distribution facilities, will lower costs and delivery times by having close, direct road access for goods to be delivered to London destinations by van.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=London Gateway : Home )
It is estimated that when the port is fully operational it will save 65m HGV-miles and take 2,000 trucks off the road per day, with economic and environmental advantages.〔
