RailPort Logistics Given Special Designation

CSX has announced that the 500-plus-acre RailPort Logistics Mobile has been designated as a Platinum CSX Select Site. Select Sites are development-ready properties along the CSX network where standard land use considerations and comprehensive due diligence items have been previously addressed. “These properties can meet the needs of a wide variety of manufacturers, significantly reducing the time required to construct industrial facilities and ultimately bringing products to market,” CSX added. It considers Mobile a hotspot for industrial growth with the recent expansions at the Port of Mobile. In the initial phase of the development, Scannell Properties will focus on approximately 390 acres. Approximately 149 acres are to be set aside for conservation, and the remainder is planned for nine industrial buildings, at least four of which will have rail service by CSX. Scannell also has plans to invest approximately $15 million into transportation infrastructure upgrades that will also benefit the neighboring Todd Acres Industrial Park. CSX said that to receive the designation, the location met a rigorous list of criteria, including infrastructure and utility availability, environmental reviews, appropriate zoning and entitlement, air quality permitting, rail serviceability, and proximity to highways or interstates. RailPort Logistics Mobile is the fourth site in Alabama and the 28th overall to have received the Platinum CSX Select Site designation since it began in 2012.
