Hershey Rail Park Project Progresses to Enhance Industrial Access in Lincoln County
The Hershey Rail Park and Inland Port project aims to improve industrial growth and transportation in Lincoln County. Key developments include a rail yard, transload facility, and utility upgrades, with construction anticipated upon approvals.

The Hershey Rail Park and Inland Port project in Lincoln County is focused on expanding transportation access for rail-dependent industries. Current activities involve site preparation and rezoning for heavy industrial use, with construction expected to start following necessary approvals.
The initiative also includes significant utility enhancements, such as increased electrical capacity and a new substation. Interest from potential tenants has begun, with an anchor project already secured through a letter of intent.
The long-term outlook suggests substantial investment and job creation, although development will occur in phases over several years. This project, in conjunction with the Nebraska International Port of the Plains, is pivotal for positioning Lincoln County as a logistics hub.
