Port of New Bedford Completes Expansion of North Terminal

Federal and local officials gathered recently to mark the completion of the North Terminal expansion project at the Port of New Bedford, MA. The new $42.7-million maritime facility is intended to strengthen the Port’s competitiveness in fishing, offshore wind, and other industries.

The completed terminal has 965 linear feet of bulkhead, provides 10.5 acres of terminal space, and utilizes a 56,000-square-foot warehouse with direct rail and road access. With upgraded bulkheads, new berthing facilities, enhanced dredging, and expanded laydown space, North Terminal is designed to streamline logistics for businesses and facilitate future Port expansions, according to the New Bedford Port Authority.

The expansion of North Terminal is the latest piece of the modernization of the Port of New Bedford. Over the past 10 years, the Port has seen the largest set of infrastructure upgrades in generations which, upon completion, will top $1 billion.
