How is the Port managing its increase in growth?
The Port is consolidating and reconfiguring existing terminals so there is room for growing cargo volumes. It is encouraging longer hours of operation, increased storage densities and the use of technology to maximize terminal efficiency. It is also investing millions of dollars to enhance Port bridges and roadways like Ocean Boulevard, a $65 million project that has improved traffic flow on Terminal Island and reduced air pollution one of the Ports top priorities. As it manages growth, the Port is taking great care to reduce environmental impacts.
