Up to 3,000 lorries per day?
Impossible?

Note the size of the warehouses (blue stripes) compared with the stadium (purple outline).
A company advertising on the web and describing their own facilities stated:
"Currently the facility has 120,000 square feet of warehousing, with an additional 100,000 square feet becoming operational in two stages later this year, increasing capacity to a conservative 12,000 pallets per night. The increase warehouse capacity will allow up to 300 double-decked artics being off-loaded and loaded per night."
They would still only have one tenth of the proposed capacity at J12 so are we to expect ten times their projected number of lorries, i.e. 3,000 lorry loads per night?
