  3. Santiago, Chile • Santiago’s metropolitan region occupies an area of 15,403 km2 (2.0% of continental Chile) • Population is 6,061,185 inhabitants (40.1% of the country) • More than 10 million inhabitants are concentrated at less than 300 Km from Santiago (> 60% Chilean population) • Chile’s highest concentration of population and percentage of GDP is in Santiago. As a result, its growth rate is above the national average. • Main economic activities are: (1) business and finance services; (2) manufacturing industry; (3) commerce, restaurants and hotels. They represent more than 60% of GDP • GDP per capita in Chile reached US$14,461 PPP in 2009 • IMF projects increases up to US$18,000 PPP in the year 2014

  6. Overview of Freight Movement in Santiago, Chile • Road transport accounts for around 88% of national freight transport • in 2007, close to 225 MMT (million metric tons) of freight were moved • 57% corresponds to movement of national cargo • 39% to cargo mobilized towards or from ports, and • the remaining 4% to cargo destined for terrestrial foreign trade • 60,770 MMT/km were mobilized, only considering movement within national territory • Regarding cargo transported by truck: • 62% corresponds to national movement, • 33% to maritime foreign trade (i.e., road transport to and from ports), and • 5% to terrestrial foreign trade itself

  8. Regulations and Restriction to Truck Movement in Santiago • The main negative externalities, produced by urban cargo transportation in Santiago, can be classified by 5 types: • Vehicular Congestion: because it is concerned with vehicles of a bigger size than cars and circulate at a slower speed, especially in turns and acceleration/deceleration cycles at intersections. • Accidents: due to their size and weight, the accidents for this type of vehicle are often serious if light vehicles are involved. • Acoustic Contamination: because of the motors size and characteristics. • Air contamination: due to gas emission and particulate matter, produced by Diesel engines. • Pavement Destruction: due to the heavy weight of their chassis these vehicles use for their operation, in comparison to cars or other light vehicles

  9. Regulations and Restriction to Truck Movement in Santiago • Current regulations for freight transport in the city of Santiago aim fundamentally at the reduction of vehicular congestion and environmental contamination. • There are restrictions on: • Circulation of freight vehicles during specific times, on specific routes; • On dimension and weight, • Vehicle age and emission levels, • Truck configuration and • On parking; there are designated areas and times permitted for loading and unloading

  11. Characteristics of the Abertis Logistics Park Project in Santiago • Located inside the ENEA business complex • 2.2 Km from the Santiago’s, AMB International Airport (SCL) • With direct access to: Costanera Norte Vespucio Express • Total area of 632,810 m2, and will house 327,798 m2 of warehouse space for rent and 13,056 m2 for services

  18. Conclusions: Transferability and Evaluation of the Abertis Logistics Park in Santiago • A logistics park like this acts as an instrument of territorial arrangement, through the integration between the land and the city. • The construction of storage technology and security systems have been proven able to be replicable and transferrable from Spain to Chile. • We think that this project is transferable; to the extent that the location has good accessibility, connectivity, and proximity to the main cargo terminals and populated centers. • This requires a good location and good road infrastructure. • Finally, since a logistics park is a long-term investment, for a company such as Abertisor any other is critical to have economic, political and jurisdictional stability wherever they invest.

  19. Conclusions: Transferability and Evaluation of the Abertis Logistics Park in Santiago • Restrictions to truck movements inside the city, encourage a project like this in which X-docking and consolidation of cargo in/out of the city can be accomplished, thus reducing transportation costs • Location in a business and industrial complex with many warehouses nearby, creates opportunities for carriers to consolidate and/or balance their loads when moving cargo in/out of the logistics park • Economic growth and the development of the logistics sector are important ingredient • Finally, this project is in its initial steps; risk factors that can materialize are low demand for this high quality warehousing services. However: • From the 20,000 m2 of first stage inaugurated last September. 12,500 m2are already rented to two logistics operators: APL Logistics and CevaLogistics • They plan to inaugurate the second stage of 20,000 m2 in the middle of 2011
