Progress continues at River Port, and we’re excited to share a closer look at the ongoing improvements across the facility.
Work on Pier 15 is well underway, with 104 new concrete piles being installed, each 110 feet long and able to support at least 100 tons. Once in place, new steel reinforcement and high-strength marine concrete will complete the deck, boosting the pier’s load-bearing capacity. This upgrade will better support our cranes, forklifts, and heavy equipment for vessel service. The project remains on track for August completion.
A new service road is now complete on the yard’s east side, improving laydown area access and streamlining emergency vehicle routes. We continue to collaborate with local fire departments to uphold the highest safety standards.
At the 14th Street site, a new parking lot with over 500 spaces is nearing completion along with upgraded lighting. A dry swale stormwater drainage system has been completed around the perimeter of the property, using a layered filtration process to treat runoff before it reaches the river. This environmentally responsible solution protects local waterways better than traditional retention ponds.
We look forward to sharing more updates as improvements continue across the facility.
