The facility will be built in Temple’s rail park at Central Pointe with direct service from the Burlington Northern Santa Fe main rail yard.
The centre will be a central location for receiving, ‘accessorising’ and distributing Toyota and Scion vehicles in the five-state region of Texas, Louisiana, Oklahoma, Arkansas and Mississippi.
The first phase will consist of a 100-acre site with approximately 230,000sq ft of buildings employing 240 initially to process and ship around 100,000 vehicles a year.
Master planning will begin in early 2008, with ground-breaking scheduled in 2009. It will be GST’s second vehicle processing centre – its existing centre north of Houston is also being expanded.
