The Futuristic London Gateway Port Terminal
The London Gateway Port Terminal or the London Gateway is the latest shipping constructional addition outskirts the city of London, on the Thames River at its North in the South-east county of Essex. Presently being constructed, the envisioning for the deep sea container port started as early as 2007 with several reformative steps taken so as to bring it to viable fruition.
The Gateway is the brainchild of a Dubai-based shipping conglomerate DP World which has presence in several countries, even outside its native United Arab Emirates. Following the successful completion of the London Gateway and the resuming of container shipping operations, the port is expected to bridge the gap between container shipping demands and supply.
In parallel, it’s also expected to reduce the onus placed on other porting facilities while generating a more feasible shipping transportation route by lessening the burden on road-based shipping infrastructure operations. The latter aspect is seen as a key promissory facet in terms of reduction in the emission of noxious gases through the usage of road-based transportation systems to ensure continuity in container shipping operations.
