Construction of the $14 million rail project is expected to begin early next year and be completed by late 2022.
The project ensures an ongoing container terminal in the district which will be good for businesses moving goods and is expected to ease road congestion.
There are plans to increase local rail freight from six thousand containers a year to 20 thousand.
