LETTER FROM CONEXUSSOUTHWEST REGIONAL LOGISTICS COUNCIL CHAIR

A Plan for Growing Southwest Indiana’s Logistics Sector was created by leading members of the logistics community

throughout Southwest Indiana. Our region sits at the population center of the United States, and development of the

appropriate infrastructure coupled with training of a skilled workforce will further the economic success of our region.

The logistics community within Southwest Indiana, made up of the four modes of transportation, including air, rail,

truck and water, gathered and agreed unanimously on the “future initiatives” that should be implemented to provide

seamless transportation solutions to Southwest Indiana.

The Conexus Indiana Logistics Council (CILC), partnering with regional economic groups and chambers of commerce

in Southwest Indiana (including Innovation Pointe) created the Southwest Regional Logistics Council (SWRLC) and

was a catalyst in creating a forum for logistics executives to discuss issues affecting the industry. We believe that by

achieving alignment of priorities in the areas of infrastructure, public policy and workforce development, Southwest

Indiana will be able to maximize short-term and long-term success for the logistics sector in this region.

A Plan for Growing Southwest Indiana’s Logistics Sector outlines those priorities/initiatives desired to incent

companies to select our region to grow their business. These initiatives also will support creation of high paying jobs

for citizens in this region. If the strategies, goals and tactics developed in this plan are implemented by the private

and public sectors, we believe that the Southwest Region will continue to grow.

We would like to thank the dedication and work of the volunteer executives within this council that have made

the creation of this document a reality. This document will provide CILC, the Indiana Department of Transportation

(INDOT), the Ports of Indiana, the Indiana Economic Development Corporation (IEDC), regional/local economic

groups and chambers of commerce with a strong foundation to further the goals outlined therein.

We look forward to continuing the conversation on how to further develop the resources and infrastructure in

Southwest Indiana to create an environment that supports further economic success in the region. Your thoughts,

comments and suggestions will make this a “living, breathing document” that supports initiatives, a vision and

economic results that impact our region.

Respectfully,

Barry Cox

President & Chief Operating Officer Officer

The Cox Group

Chair, Southwest Regional Logistics Council

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY: SOUTHWEST REGIONAL LOGISTICS COUNCIL

The Conexus Indiana Southwest Regional Logistics Council (SWRLC) is a forum of 38 logistics executives and thought leaders from throughout Southwest Indiana representing the following logistics sectors: air, infrastructure, rail, trucking, warehousing/distribution, waterborne, advanced manufacturing and service firms. Logistics users are manufacturers, distributors/warehousing, and third-party providers.

SWRLC is working to:

◆◆ Enhance the environment for companies in advanced manufacturing and logistics to grow their business, taking advantage of Indiana’s position at the heart of the global supply chain;

◆◆ Create a more attractive environment for manufacturing and logistics companies to relocate to or expand in the Southwest Region, thereby creating jobs and increasing State and local revenue; and

◆◆ Create high-paying jobs for Hoosiers – the average wage of Indiana manufacturing and logistics jobs is more than 33% higher than the State’s median income.

PROBLEM STATEMENTThe Southwest Region’s transportation network has opportunities for improvement due to transportation “bottlenecks”; lack of direct rail service; underutilized air facilities with little international freight movement; lack of efficient mode-to-mode connectivity (e.g. road to rail; road to water; road to air; rail to water); a decaying lock and dam infrastructure; and lack of dredging that prohibits barges/ships to maximize capacity. This disconnect has created higher costs, potential environmental impacts, inefficient freight movement, loss of productivity for Southwest Region businesses, and safety impacts.

MISSION STATEMENTThe Southwest Regional Logistics Council will work to promote logistics excellence in the Southwest Region through development of infrastructure, public policy, public awareness and workforce development goals. The Southwestern Region is positioned strategically in the population center of the United States.

2

OBJECTIVES

1. Executive Forum: Provide a forum for Southwest Region logistics executives to discuss issues affecting the industry;

2. Infrastructure: Develop a comprehensive plan to strengthen the Southwest Region’s public and private logistics infrastructure;

3. Public Awareness: Develop paid and earned media to promote the sector;

4. Public Policy: Identify Federal, State, and local public policy areas that impact the logistics industry and work with Federal, State, and local thought leaders from government, academia and associations to enhance the sector;

5. Workforce Development: Develop and implement strategies to build the human capital needed to support the growing demand for logistics services through innovative workforce programs in the Southwest Region.

3

LOGISTICS STRATEGIES

◆◆ Increase the flow of goods originating, terminating, and adding value within the Southwest Region over the next five years, thereby, creating an increase of net new jobs and growing the logistics sector.

◆◆ Provide a broad-based forum, consisting of Southwest Region business executives throughout the logistics industry, for collectively vetting critical relevant logistics public policy issues of commonality, therefore, optimizing the business climate.

◆◆ Strengthen and grow the logistics qualified workforce in the Southwest Region by creating portable skills curricula leading to academic degrees/certifications that will increase the pipeline of qualified workers over the next five years.

◆◆ Increase the public’s awareness of the importance of the logistics industry on the Southwest Region’s economy.

DAVIESS COUNTYPROJECTS

◆◆ Project 1401: Industrial Park Access - Design and build road access to and from US 50 at I-69 Exit 62 to 550/National Road to and from the industrial park at CR 200 East. Reason: Safety of trucks moving cargo to and from Industrial Park off of I-69.


◆◆ Project 1403: Industrial Park Road Extension - Create an industrial road from the Industrial Park at 550/National Road to CR 200 East traveling North to CR 200 North. Reason: Create economic development by connecting to CSX rail, the Daviess County Airport and opening up further land for industrial development serving new I-69 Corridor.


◆◆ Project 1404: New Interchange at CR 200 North - Design and build a new interchange off of I-69 around mile marker 58. Reason: Create economic development giving further access to industrial development mega-site serving the new I-69 Corridor.


◆◆ Project 1405: US 50 Freeway Access - Convert US 50 from the existing 2-lane highway to a 4-lane full access-controlled freeway with interchanges at major intersections from I-69 to US 231. Reason: Relieve the bottleneck of combined truck and passenger car congestion along SR 50 creating better traffic flow for the movement of cargo.


◆◆ Project 1407: White River Bridge Improvements - Re-engineer, reconfigure and redesign the White River Bridge on SR 257. Reason: Mitigate flooding that creates a safety hazard for the movement of truck cargo.


◆◆ Project 1408: Indiana Rail Road Company Rail Road Ties - Install new rail road ties between MP 222.3 and MP 241.5 on the Chicago Subdivision. Reason: Increase rail track speed and decrease defects ensuring safe and efficient movement of cargo.


◆◆ Project 1409: Crane Naval Air Warfare Center Additional Access - Seek US Government permission to access the West Gate from US 231. Reason: Relieve the bottleneck at the North entrance off of SR 45 to Crane Naval Air Warfare Center.

Estimated Cost: No cost
