Although there is freight in KZN that moves only within the province, a significant part of the freight (by weight and volume) either originates from the Ports of Durban and Richards Bay, or  is destined there.  This session will widen the focus to include aspects beyond "the ports" and will explore the role of multimodal terminals when freight becomes cargo.
