DP World launches Duke Point Terminal expansion project

DP World has launched construction of the Duke Point Terminal expansion at the Port of Nanaimo aimed at significantly enhancing Vancouver Island’s connectivity and trade resilience with global markets. 

The project will significantly increase operational efficiency and handling capabilities, nearly doubling the berth length from 182 m to 325 m and expanding cargo-handling capacity to 280,000 teu annually once completed. 

This will enable Duke Point Terminal to serve larger international vessels, provide improved services for importers and exporters, and facilitate smoother regional and international trade.
