Project Overview

The project will build a drive down float and vehicle bridge, as well as incorporate two new 5-ton electric cranes, to serve the commercial fishing fleet and improve freight transportation. The facilities will improve safety, reduce overcrowding, and increase the efficiency of transporting goods between vessels and the road system.
