HUTCHISON Ports (UK) drew up its battles lines once again last month as yet another public inquiry got under way.

Mercifully, this one was rather shorter than the inquiries that were held into HPUK's plans for deepsea container terminals at Bathside Bay in Harwich and at Felixstowe South. But getting through it was just as important.

The inquiry was considering the rail upgrade work which HPUK is proposing and, indeed, is compelled to do as a condition of moving ahead with its Felixstowe South Reconfiguration.

The plans include dualling the Felixstowe branch line and creating three new sidings at the Ipswich marshalling yard.

Before it can move ahead with the project HPUK must have legally binding agreements in place for a series of road and rail upgrades that will cost an estimated GBP85m ($168m). A decision from last month's inquiry is expected later this year.

In advance of that, the port is introducing an 'infrastructure charge' on laden import containers in order to recoup the cost of the work it has to carry out.
