Project Description: |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
||
This comprehensive rail access project addresses the Port's systematic rail access needs from three perspectives: 1) improvements to the existing on-Port rail infrastructure, including tracks, bridge, and loading equipment; 2) improvements to the off-Port rail connections to an off-Port container yard; and 3) property acquisition, design and construction of the container yard itself to meet current and imminent demand. Improvements to the rail links to the Port of Miami, will make cargo and cruise movements more efficient and safe and will enhance regional connectivity. |
