Truck yard and distribution monitoring in Lathrop, California

Local and live

A freight town built around an intermodal terminal

The City of Lathrop calls itself the crossroads of commerce, at the convergence of Interstate 5, Interstate 205 and Highway 120, about 70 miles east of San Francisco and 55 miles south of Sacramento. Union Pacific's Lathrop intermodal terminal on East Roth Road runs 24 hours a day, seven days a week. The Manteca Bulletin has reported an expansion onto 142 acres that will ultimately let the railroad handle up to 730,000 lifts a year, each lift a container moved between a truck trailer and a railcar.

Warehouse space keeps growing beside those freeways. The TriPoint Logistics Center covers about 315 acres south of Highway 120 at the Yosemite Avenue off-ramp, planned for up to 4.85 million square feet of warehouse and distribution buildings. The Crossroads Industrial Park takes in about 528 acres north and east of the I-5 and Highway 120 interchange. Sites like these mean long fence lines, wide truck courts and rows of trailers that can sit loaded through a night or a holiday weekend.

Sigma covers those sites without putting anyone on the ground. Live agents watch your cameras 24/7/365, AI person and vehicle detection flags movement along the fence and in trailer rows, and agents use live, instant talk-down through your site speakers before calling police. At the gate, agents see each arrival on camera, speak to the driver and open the gate remotely. Yard checks add damage inspections, visual seal checks on video and parking reports, so your team starts the shift knowing where each trailer is.
