THE Port of Savannah achieved its busiest February ever last month, handling 364,405 TEU an increase of 17 per cent over the same month last year.
Although March volumes are expected to dip due to the impact of COVID-19 compared to March 2019, all terminals remain open for business, with normal vessel operations, terminal services, and Monday-Friday truck gate hours, said the Georgia Port Authority (GPA).
Said GPA executive director Griff Lynch: "The strong fundamentals at the deepwater ports of Savannah and Brunswick have fueled powerful expansions in our cargo volumes and market share; they will also help us to weather the current storm related to COVID-19 disruptions."
To help GPA prepare for the future, the Port of Savannah received three additional ship-to-shore cranes this month, bringing Garden City Terminal's total fleet to 36.
Other development include the Mason Mega Rail project, which will double Savannah's rail capacity; and the recent acquisition of 145 acres contiguous to Garden City Terminal, which will increase the terminal's footprint to more than 1,300 acres and add more than one million TEU annual capacity.
