Alabama Port Authority Plans Inland Intermodal Transfer Facility
The Alabama Port Authority is planning a new inland container intermodal transfer facility (ICTF).
The project will extend intermodal rail service from the Port Authority’s container intermodal terminal at the Port of Mobile, in support of Alabama regional growth in manufacturing, retail, distribution, and agribusiness sectors.
The Alabama Port Authority Board of Directors last week approved the $2.042-million purchase of 272 acres in Montgomery, Alabama, to construct the facility, the first phase of which is estimated at $54 million.
