Earlier this week, SC Ports officials + elected officials held the groundbreaking of the Navy Base Intermodal Facility.

The multi-million dollar project will add a near-dock rail and an inner-harbor barge operation. The facility will be located about one mile from the Hugh K. Leatherman Terminal.

Why the new additions? The facility will increase fluidity + capacity for the Southeast supply chain as more and more cargo passes through SC Ports.

The rail yard and barge operation are expected to open in July 2025.
