The Columbus Regional Airport Authority has partnered with Norfolk Southern Corporation to create an intermodal facility on and adjacent to Rickenbacker International Airport. The new Rickenbacker Intermodal Terminal is expected to be operational in early 2008.

Developing a new rail/truck intermodal facility at Rickenbacker is vital to Central Ohio remaining an advanced logistics center and a key player in global trade. The facility will be used for the interchange of shipping containers between trains and trucks.

Existing facilities are utilized to the fullest extent and the Rickenbacker area’s current intermodal facility, Discovery Park, has long surpassed capacity. Norfolk Southern has seen an approximate 15% increase in demand for intermodal services year-over-year for the past several years. Because Discovery Park is at capacity, Norfolk Southern is turning away business from the Central Ohio region. The new intermodal facility at Rickenbacker will provide increased capacity and improved levels of service, thereby allowing Central Ohio to regain and expand shipping and economic opportunities, including job creation and other public benefits.
