What type of boat traffic can the channel into the Boston inner harbor accommodate?”
Some recent improvements: The Boston Inner Harbor Channel is the access route by which all vessel traffic enters and reaches Boston Harbor, Chelsea Creek, and Mystic River destinations. In 1998, the Massachusetts Port Authority, in conjunction with the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, initiated the “Boston Harbor Navigation Improvement and Berth Dredging Projects.” The projects involved the deepening of three tributary channels (Reserved Channel, Mystic River Channel and Chelsea Creek Channel) and two areas in the Main Ship Channel to provide sufficient depths to maneuver ships, as well as the deepening of several berths. All areas were dredged to –40 feet Mean Lower Low Water (MLLW) except for the Chelsea Creek Channel which was dredged to –38 MLLW. This work is largely complete, with only small, isolated areas in need of further dredging. The channel depths in the East Boston DPA are generally comparable to overall Boston Harbor depths.
