Projects will establish a network of complementary shortsea shipping services to reduce road congestion, increase throughput capacity at marine terminals and develop new transportation options – for more integrated and efficient flow of international trade.
All financial figures are anticipated federal contributions for projects, most of which are cost-shared with important contributions from partners, including British Columbia and other western provincial and municipal governments, ports and railways.
All projects are subject to funding commitments of all partners, completion of due diligence, contribution agreements and final federal project approval.
