EL harbour gets set to attract new car trade

EL harbour gets set to attract new car trade EAST Londons harbour has embarked on a multimillion-rand project to build an additional 1000 open parking bays to its car terminal. The port is on a low-profile drive to become the countrys top seaborne vehicle transit terminal. Port spokesperson Terry Taylor yesterday said the expansion was essential if it wanted to attract new car imports and exports to the harbour. We want to create the extra space to create demand from more car manufacturers to use the port for their exports, he said. The new parking bays will be built on the site of a de-commissioned power station that is situated next to the existing closed car terminal in the harbour. Taylor said that the project will double the amount of open parking available for cars at the harbour. We have taken ownership of the power station.
