$60-Million Project For Mobile Container Shipping Terminal

APM Terminals Mobile, which operates the container shipping terminal in Mobile, says a $60-million investment will boost its ability to transfer cargo from ships to trains over the next two years, AL.com reported. The company will add more than 1 mi. of track at the Intermodal Container Transfer Facility, where shipping containers are loaded on and unloaded from rail cars. The project will more than double the facility’s total length of working track to more than 12,000 ft. It will include new storage space, additional equipment and improved access. John Driscoll, director and CEO of the Alabama State Port Authority, said the investment goes hand-in-hand with the $25 million the authority is spending on a new bridge that will connect the container terminal directly to it. When the bridge is built, trucks will have a direct path that keeps them off public streets and potentially eliminates the need for an extra transfer, which is currently the case.
