FREIGHT AND LOGISTICS
Moree is set to become a true intermodal hub with road, rail and air transport links available. This will include connection to the Port of Newcastle which will enable businesses to access global markets.
Advancements in farming technology and on-farm storage will also increase Inland Rail efficiency, enabling it to move increased volumes of product off the roads and onto rail.

There are opportunities to support value-adding industries, including:
- fertiliser manufacturers
- grain products
- meat products
- nut processing
ADAM MARSHALL, MEMBER FOR NORTHERN TABLELANDS
“Moree is the most productive agricultural region in Australia – and now thanks to this new precinct, backed by the State Government, combined with inland rail – Moree will become the economic engine room for northern NSW."
