FRPD in a Joint Venture with BEL Pacific has entered into a contract with Maher Terminals Holding Corp., to expand the Fairview Container Terminal in Prince Rupert, increasing its container capacity by 500,000 TEUs to accommodate growing container volumes and further enhancing the Canadian gateway’s growing role in North American trans-Pacific trade.
The project will provide a second deep-water berth, four additional gantry cranes, and land reclamation to further expand the container yard. On-dock rail trackage will also be expanded through densification of the current track configuration, which will be supported by a rubber-tired gantry crane operation.
