Timaru future in doubt

Rail and Maritime Transport Union Timaru branch president Peter Clemens has expressed his 80 members’ concern over PrimePort Timaru’s future following three major customers recently announcing service reductions.

“The bottom line is no-one really knows what is going to happen,” Mr Clemens said in light of the port losing 50% of its current trade.

“Management had a meeting with the workers and really nothing was said except, expect the unknown.”
