Strategy
National Intermodal’s strategy is shaped by the Australian Government’s expectations for delivering a modern, efficient, and interconnected national freight network.
Expectations, we play a central role in developing and operating state‑of‑the‑art intermodal terminals across the country—facilities that are essential to meeting Australia’s growing freight demand and unlocking the full benefits of Inland Rail.

Improve Supply Chain Resilience
Reinvesting in Australia’s supply chain and reducing reliance on overseas suppliers to increase resilience and security of supply, recognising the challenges of an ageing logistics workforce and the additional supply chain pressure caused by Australia’s increasing population.
Increase logistics efficiency
Investing in modern and accessible freight infrastructure and intermodal facilities to enhance productivity, increase competition, and ensure resultant cost savings are passed to consumers. These benefits can start to be realised even before the completion of Inland Rail via interconnected terminals in Sydney, Melbourne, and Perth via Parkes.
Improve sustainability
We are leveraging our leadership to deliver stronger economic, social, and environmental outcomes. By co- locating warehouse and supply chain management services at our intermodal precincts, we’re reducing unnecessary transport and providing better connections between sea, road and rail distribution networks while making significant economic contributions to the regions where we operate.
