VICT expansion

Victoria International Container Terminal, International Container Terminal Services Inc.’s operation at the Port of Melbourne and Australia’s first fully automated container terminal, is expanding its equipment fleet with the addition of six new automated stacking cranes. Purchased as part of VICT’s expansion project, the new ASCs will operate on three new yard modules to increase the terminal’s yard and reefer capacity by 30 percent and 43 percent, respectively. Fifteen additional truck grids will also be added to the landside to increase slot availability by 30 percent.
