Motorway network :

At the crossroads of Northern Europe via the Rhone valley and the Mediterranean Arch.

Road network :

Direct road access: currently 3 km from the Salon-ouest entrance, on the motorway bypass that links Spain and Italy, soon to be replaced by the A56 motorway which will serve the platform directly. Rail-road: as soon as it is commissioned, Clesud will be connected to the rail network so that it can then accept complete trains or isolated wagons.
In addition, the opening of the multimodal combined transport terminal will further diversify the plant's rail modal services. Sea-road / Air-road: Clesud is lucky to have the port of Fos nearby, the maritime logistics platform meant for the large maritime hauliers and international freight-forwarders, mainly in intercontinental traffic, as well as the Marseille-Provence airport, which targets airlines and air operators which are developing European and intercontinental freight traffic.

Rail network :

Clesud is linked to the Miramas marshalling station, one of France's major marshalling stations in terms of the number of wagons processed, and the regional hub for goods traffic for the SNCF south-east network.

Clesud, a continental logistics platform, offers land areas that are devoted to logistics, a large size with significant possibilities for expansion, exempted from the local plant tax ("TLE") and specifically designed for: European and world-wide industrial firms, contract transport/logistics service providers, retailers (supermarkets and specialist distribution).

The Clesud project is supported by the central government and the authority of the "Région" (region encompassing several départements), the council of the Département des Bouches-du-Rhône, the local development body, the communes (local government entities) of Grans, Miramas, Fos and Istres, as well as by the CCIMP.
