Additional benefits of the terminal include its direct rail connections to the main cargo rail stations and three railheads within its boundaries comprised of six rail tracks with a total length of one kilometre.

TIV also provides reefer plug-in points capable of feeding more than 220 reefer containers and guarantees areas where dangerous cargo and most IMO class containers can be stored.

It handles an annual throughput of 320,000 TEUs and anticipates a 10-15% growth over the next five years.
