The Maine Port Authority and MaineDOT are funding a $3.2 million project to modernize the International Marine Terminal’s container yard, storage, and access systems.
Construction is underway at the International Marine Terminal at the Port of Portland in Maine.
The state Department of Transportation said that the Maine Port Authority is advancing a $3.2-million Maritime Administration (Marad) Port Infrastructure Development Program project supported by matching funds by MaineDOT to modernize Portland’s container yard, refrigerated-container storage, and terminal access systems.
The project moves IMT toward a better-connected, electrically supported refrigerated logistics platform: ship-to-yard, yard-to-cold store, and, where a shipper’s network permits, rail or truck onward.
Work includes full-depth pavement reconstruction, improved stormwater drainage, enhanced safety and security features, and new bi-fold speed gates at Gate 1. Construction began on August 17, the DOT said in a social media post.
The project is expected to be complete in October.
