In recent years, the marine transportation sector has been undergoing very rapid and multifarious changes, due to the alliances between shipping companies, introduction of larger ships as a cost reduction measure, and the application of multi-forwarding transportation systems to supply materials in proper quantities. The customers of Japanese ports need adequate terminal facilities and other services, sufficient channel depth for larger ships, efficient handling, and lower costs of port fees and dues. Terminal facilities and other services have to change depending largely on the type of packaging and new trends in shipping. Thus, a review on the function of ports and their facilities, including the configuration of those facilities and berth spaces, has to be conducted. In this paper, an evaluation of the facility configuration of a major Japanese port is conducted through cluster analysis. The results of this study are applied to the arrangement of facilities at the Port of Hakata, so as to satisfy the requirement of a convenient function and an effective investment in an improved project concept of the physical distribution system for a land-based support system for marine transportation.
