CHARLESTON, S.C. — (AP) — The first phase of a new terminal at the South Carolina Ports is on schedule to open in March.
Officials said concrete has been poured for the wharf. Buildings and booths for trucks are being finished. And, helicopters are helping run power lines to the new site.
The new terminal is the first phase of a six-year $2 billion project for the state’s busiest port that should double the amount of cargo the facility can handle.
Crews are deepening the channel in Charleston Harbor to handle the world’s largest ships.
The new terminal will have a direct connection for truckers to Interstate 26.
