APMT Mobile and Alabama Port Authority agree construction of new US$131m container berth

APM Terminals (APMT) Mobile and the Alabama Port Authority have agreed to proceed with the construction of a new, 1,300 ft container berth at the Port of Mobile. 

The US$131m project, funded by federal appropriations to the Port Authority and enhanced by private investments from APMT, marks the next major investment in the growth of the Mobile container terminal. 

Berth capacity will be expanded by 50%, enabling the terminal to handle three ultra-large container vessels (ULCVs) simultaneously and significantly enhancing the Port of Mobile’s service offering and capacity for container traffic in the Gulf.
