"(Provisional name) Landport Kokura" will be constructed at 4000-2, Sone Mitsuzuka, Kokura Minami-ku, Kitakyushu City, Fukuoka Prefecture, with a site area of 34,783 m2.
The building will be a two-story, box-shaped steel-frame structure with a planned total floor area of 46,694 m2, and will be a multi-tenant facility that can be divided into three sections for leasing.
By designating the vehicle traffic flow within the site as one-way, safety for loading and unloading vehicles is taken into consideration, and a waiting area for container trucks is also secured.
Due to its location with excellent access by land, sea, and air, a wide variety of vehicles and cargo are expected to be handled, so a hybrid double-sided berth with both low and high floors will be installed to enable efficient operations.
