Inland Port Proposal

Tom Richman of the King's Counsel, (a biannual newsletter of King & Co Property Consultants) proposed in June 2007 that the Greenbank Military Range's land should be used for an inland port. Richman claims that an inland port at this location would greatly reduce current demands on the Port of Brisbane. He has suggested that the facilities at the range be moved to one of several other suitable locations that Richman has determined, the details of these locations are yet to be released.
