French term

permettant de recevoir et d'éclater les flux

French to English Other Transport / Transportation / Shipping Freight/Logistics
Hi all,
Text about intermodal logistic platforms.
Context: La région bénéficie d'une position géographique en Europe et d'un noeud d'infrastructures **permettant de recevoir et d'éclater les flux** du Nord au Sud et d'Est en Ouest.

I get the general idea, but am struggling to find an industry-specific term for 'de recevoir et d'éclater les flux'.
Any suggestions much appreciated.

éclater les flux = to break-down transport routes

I know propose:

allowing for routes to be received with transport break-down

Imho, this region allows for shipment in these areas as well as stops along the way

Let me give another translation:

allowing for shipments to pass through with transport break-downs (along the way)

I'm not sure about "sorting" things here. If you say "eclater les produits en provenance de", that would mean "to sort", I suppose.

Maybe this would be best:

allowing for the flow of shipments through the regions with points of stop

--------------------------------------------------
Note added at 1 day4 hrs (2010-04-09 20:38:44 GMT)
--------------------------------------------------

I mean: allowing for the flow of shipments from North to South and East to West with points of stop.

with points of stop in between

Alternative to "sort them" = "break them down"
