Generating 9,300 jobs and flow-on benefits worth $1.3 billion to the Lower Hunter, a new container terminal at Newcastle will help turbo-charge the economy as it recovers from the effects of COVID-19. Proposed for the former BHP site at Mayfield, the Multi-purpose Deepwater Terminal (MDT) will not only create cost efficiencies for businesses across NSW, it will underpin the diversification of the Hunter economy for a sustainable, uncontained future.
