Construction is underway at the International Marine Terminal!

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 the container yard, refrigerated-container storage, and terminal access systems.

Work includes full-depth pavement reconstruction, improved stormwater drainage, enhanced safety and security features, and new bi-fold speed gates at Gate 1. Since construction began on August 17, our contracting partner, Gorham Sand & Gravel, has removed the existing pavement and excavated the site to the required subgrade elevation.

The project is expected to be complete in October, strengthening efficient, safe access to this vital Maine port facility.
