PROJECT DESCRIPTION
The Canaveral Port Authority (CPA) is requesting $12.3 million in TIGER funds to help advance critical
investments being made in its Inland Port Logistics Center (ILC). Specifically the TIGER funds would
help advance the construction of roadway capacity improvements along the key access road to the
ILC as well as construct onsite roads including storm water ponds and utilities. These roadway
improvements are critical to the success of the ILC; they will ensure efficient and safe access to
logistics services and warehouse/distribution center capacity. CPA is investing significantly in its
cargo operation, an operation that will be dependent on the new
logistics services provided by the ILC. Award of a grant will help
State Route 524
minimize the impact of long haul truck movements along U.S.
highways by supporting Port Canaveral’s ability to serve the Orlando
Metro Market.
No Class A high bay logistics distribution center or warehouse exists
in Brevard County to serve new cargo distribution and logistics
clients. In late 2014 CPA purchased the 271 acre parcel located in the
southeast quadrant of the intersection of State Road 524 and
Interstate 95 (I-95), Brevard County Florida. This planned project has
entitlements from the City of Cocoa for up to 1,000,000 square feet
of industrial/business park, 810,000 square feet of commercial, 675
multi-family units and 270 hotel rooms. The entitlements are capable
of being modified/converted in accordance with the City of Cocoa
Development Order. Located strategically at the intersection of State
Road 524 and I-95, this location provides highway access ideal for
logistics centers.
The existing approved entitlements from the City of Cocoa and low
per acre cost will provide the opportunity to attract large cargo users
that require logistics/processing space while allowing CPA to keep
Port property for waterside priority uses. As an Inland Port, this will
provide the logistics center needed by the growing cargo
development of CPA and Brevard County businesses, as well as serve
the freight mobility needs in central Florida and beyond. With the
ownership of this property, CPA has a vested interest in the
development of logistics center, serving the needs of the Port,
surrounding cities, Brevard County and central Florida. TIGER grant
funding for the development of the logistics center road
improvements, utilities, infrastructure and stormwater is the crucial
next step in moving this project forward.
An ILC’s success is driven by its ability to provide quality logistics and
transportation services. Access to the interstate highway system,
intermodal rail, a deep water seaport, and an international airport, combined with reliable
connections to a large consumer market is critical. Site selection decisions are often driven by the
ability to illustrate these services and connections exist.
Page 3 of 22
Reduced congestion along roadway and rail corridors is essential in supporting international trade
and efficient supply chains. As our international gateways (airport and seaports) grow and expand,
it is critical that the landside transportation and logistics requirements are similarly identified and
expanded in a way that protects the quality of life in host communities while ensuring competitive
access to the market place. CPA’s ILC has all of these advantages available and the roadway capacity
improvement projects will help advance its development by providing safe and reliable access from
Port Canaveral to the ILC and from the ILC to the Orlando Metro Market via State Route 524 (SR
524); and access to the full ILC foot print via the internal roadway network. In addition, the
improvements to SR 524 will improve regional mobility for both cargo and passenger traffic.
SR 524 congestion is a growing problem. Anticipated growth projections will result in increased
congestion and delay, and reduced safety. The introduction of increased truck traffic along the
corridor will further reduce level of service and increase the risk of accidents. Widening of SR 524, in
conjunction with the development of the ILC, will improve transportation efficiencies and safety,
create new and expanded economic opportunities, provide improved access to jobs and businesses,
and support existing and future land use. This project will provide convenience for users such as:
shippers and receivers of cargo, warehouse tenants, emergency vehicles, local residents and other
regular users commuting to and from their jobs in the area.
This roadway improvement project and ILC development will promote “Ladders of Opportunity” for
all of Brevard County and the neighboring counties. This will create economic opportunities such as
new jobs, community revitalization that benefits the entire Brevard County population, an expanded
foreign trade zone to attract value added services and manufacturing, and an increased supply of
commercial real estate for warehousing and distribution purposes.

PROJECT PARTIES
The Canaveral Port Authority (CPA) is requesting TIGER to fund $12,252,000 which is 50 percent of
the total project cost of $24,504,000.
CPA is currently the only party funding this project. Although, the City of Cocoa is unable to partner
at this time, there is an existing Development Order between the City of Cocoa and the former
owner which was transferred to the Port as the new owner, dated 10/26/2010, expiring this year,
where a funding commitment provision is established for the SR 524 improvements. There is a
possibility that this provision can be extended or revised dependent on future discussions between
the Port CEO, the City of Cocoa Manager and the City Council but this has not happened prior to the
Port’s TIGER grant application submittal. In addition, CPA will be submitting an application to the
Florida Seaport Transportation and Economic Development Council (FSTED) for this project to be
included in their 5-year work program and to be considered for funding in fiscal year 2016-2017.

SELECTION CRITERIA
The Port Canaveral Inland Port Logistics Center (ILC) will have substantial impacts on the region’s
economic competitiveness. The project is a critical component of the port’s cargo development
strategy. Cargo destined for the Orlando Metro Market will continue to increase as the region
grows, ultimately becoming the largest region in Florida, the third largest state in the U.S. The ability
of Port Canaveral to compete for and handle cargo destined for this market will create a more
efficient supply chain for cargo, reducing truck mileage, decreasing overall transportation costs,
lowering infrastructure maintenance, and improving quality of life and environmental sustainability.
This ILC is vital to the current and future/forecast growth of the Orlando Metro Market. It will
provide warehousing and distribution facilities required to support the inbound cargo at Port
Canaveral destined for the greater Orlando Metro Market. Without the support of the Port and its
ILC project, the Orlando Metro Market and surrounding population will experience higher prices due
to cargo being handled less efficiently at competing ports and being trucked into the region from
much greater distances.
The Orlando Metro Market region’s population (defined as Brevard, Volusia, Indian River, Orange,
Osceola, and Seminole counties) is estimated to grow by 1.2 million or a 39 percent increase by 2040
as illustrated in Table 2.1 This region will account for almost 20 percent of Florida’s growth over this
time period. This increase in population, combined with continued growth in annual tourists, will
significantly increase the demand for consumer goods. Expansion of the Orlando International
Airport (MCO) also will create additional opportunities for growth in tourism and business markets
for both the domestic and international travelers.

With this significant growth happening now and anticipated to continue in the coming decades, Port
Canaveral must be in a position to handle a significant volume of cargo; to do so requires
investments in key secondary logistics infrastructure consisting of logistics parks that provide
warehouse/distribution center capacity. Port Canaveral’s ILC will be a key stimulus project for the
port and the region, creating a more efficient way to serve the large and growing consuming
population base in Central Florida.

This grant application provides the opportunity for the development of the ILC to be accelerated.
Port Canaveral is aggressively advancing the development of its cargo facilities focused on the
container market. As part of this process, the port recognized the need for supporting landside
capacity. With the purchase of the ILC site, the port is advancing its cargo operation at the waterside
(deepening to accommodate larger ships), terminal side (container terminal development), and land
side (ILC with roadway improvements) simultaneously.
A successful grant will help optimize the supply chain in the short term, supporting port growth,
eliminating long haul truck movements, generating high paying jobs, increasing the competitive
environment for regional businesses, and supporting environmental sustainability and quality of life.
With trade patterns shifting and anticipated to further shift with competition of the Panama Canal
expansion, and with Port Canaveral aggressively investing in its cargo infrastructure, now is the time
to accelerate this project and the grant is a key part of that process. A TIGER grant would ensure
that the ILC advances on schedule; without the grant the project will advance at a much slower rate.
With and without conditions are presented below:
•
With Grant. Development of the ILC advances on the defined schedule. Construction would
begin when the grant funding became available. Internal and external roadway
improvements will be constructed as part of site preparation and development helping
ensure the entire site is shovel ready as new tenants are identified. In addition, the necessary
capacity will be available to help support Port Canaveral’s cargo expansion forecasts. Finally,
the impacted roadways will operate more efficiently and more safely from day one of the site
opening its doors.
•
Without Grant. Development of the ILC advances, but more slowly, with the roadway
improvements, both internal and external. coming on line over time. This will result in
parcels of land being available as opposed to the site as a whole. The time to reach full build
out will double. This will impact Port Canaveral’s ability to achieve its cargo forecasts as
shippers elect to use more distant competitor ports; some cargo will be lost permanently.
The region will experience a greater number of long haul truck trips. Roadway conditions
around the site will worsen as capacity is brought on line, resulting in a reactive environment
as opposed to proactive one, creating less safe operating conditions.
The key difference between with and without grant conditions is the development schedule.
The with grant schedule will achieve full capacity out by year 8; the without grant schedule will
achieve full capacity by year 15. The benefit of the grant consists of the additional cargo handled at
the ILC prior to the build out under without grant conditions (e.g., benefits accrue from 2018 thru
2031). Additional scenario details can be found in the Benefit-Cost Analysis section. The potential
long-term outcomes and selection criteria for the ILC will are discussed below and include: state of
good repair, economic competitiveness, quality of life, sustainability, safety, innovation, and
partnerships.
a. Primary Criteria - LONG-TERM OUTCOMES
i.
State of Good Repair
The State of Good Repair will be comprised of the value of avoided roadway pavement damage due
to reduced truck vehicle-miles traveled (VMT) from shorter haul movements for cargo handled at
Port Canaveral and the ILC. The development of the ILC will reduce truck VMT by replacing long haul
movements from distance seaports with short haul truck movements moving from Port Canaveral to
the ILC and from the ILC to the Orlando Metro Market.
Page 9 of 22
The calculation measures the avoided truck VMT created by moving cargo through Port Canaveral
and the ILC based on average pavement damage cost per truck mile of travel. The total state of
good repair benefit is $14.8 million (non-discounted) in avoided pavement damage over the 30 year
analysis period.
ii.
Economic Competitiveness
The Economic Competitiveness is measured based on two factors: travel time savings for truck
drivers; and savings on truck operating costs including maintenance and fuel. The savings is based
on reduced VMT as a result of serving the Orlando Metro Market from Port Canaveral and the ILC
versus competitor ports and distribution centers located in Miami, Fort Lauderdale, Tampa,
Jacksonville, and Savannah.
The benefit-cost analysis assumes that the completed project will serve containerized cargo moving
through Port Canaveral to the Orlando Metro Market and that such movements will on average
result in trips 70 miles shorter than when handled at competitor facilities. Without the grant, a
greater proportion of the demand generated by the Orlando Metro Market will be handled by
competing ports. The result is an estimated total of 172.0 million truck VMT avoided over the thirty
year analysis period resulting in an estimated $289.3 million (non-discounted) in cost savings over the
30 year period.
Short-Term and Long-Term Job Creation
Job creation and economic stimulus related to this project may be attributed to temporary
construction activity and permanent jobs related to the logistics park.
The short-term jobs created due to the roadway improvements and site development will initially be
engineers, planners, surveyors, skilled heavy equipment operators, and construction workers. The
construction impacts are a one-time only impact as a result of the construction activity of the
proposed project. The estimated $23.02 million in project cost was used to estimate the direct and
indirect short-term job impacts. The result using this method is approximately 228 jobs during the
construction phase as shown in Table 3.
The long-term estimates of jobs and economic activity generated by this project are based on the
volume of TEUs estimated to be handled at the ILC. This throughput phases in over time as capacity
comes on line. It is important to note that these impacts are not cumulative. For example, these
impacts cannot be added together to determine a total impact. Year 1 impacts represent the jobs
created by 7,997 TEUs. Year 10 impacts reflect the impact of 151,465 TEUs. With the grant award,
the project will generate 28 jobs in the first year and 526 jobs in year 10, as shown in Table 4.

iii.
Quality of life.
The quality of life criteria is focused on land use choices that reduce VMT, increased accessibility, and
property value increases. The ILC will increase the value of the property it is developed on, will
provide access to new high paying jobs, and will help reduce VMT on U.S. roadways. In addition, the
new roadway capacity will benefit the local community and the new retail and services (e.g., gas
station, hotel) will provide additional value. While this interpretation of quality of life may differ
from the traditional interpretation, the project will support efforts to create and maintain a vibrant
community.
The project is anticipated to generate 526 full time jobs and reduce truck VMT by 172.0 million. The
project will serve as an incubator for the supply chain and logistics industry, including long term
success of Port Canaveral’s container operation. The long term benefits of this project will improve
the quality of life for the surrounding community.
Page 11 of 22
iv.
Environmental Sustainability
The environmental sustainability criteria are focused on environmental benefits from reduced
emissions. This project promotes environmentally sustainable transportation by decreasing truck
VMT and reducing emissions and fuel consumption. The avoidance of 172.0 million truck VMT due to
shorter haul movements will result in a reduction of 10.7 million gallons of diesel fuel over 30 years,
despite a net growth in cargo tonnage.
The emissions benefits of the reduced truck VMT focused on the following emission types: NOx,
PM10, VOCs, SOx, and CO2. Emissions rates for trucks were estimated using the California Life-Cycle
Benefit/Cost Analysis Model (Version 5.0) and applied to the VMT estimates. The emissions were
then monetized using the TIGER VII guidance, resulting in avoided emissions as follows: 120
thousand metric tons of CO2, 25 metric tons of VOCs, 110 metric tons of NOx, and 9 tons of PM10,
and 1 ton of SOx over the analysis period. Overall, this leads to a total emissions benefit of $11.0
million (non-discounted) over the 30 year analysis period with the value of CO2 emissions discounted
at 3 percent. Table 5 summarizes the emissions avoided.

v.
Safety
The safety criteria are focused on prevented accidents (property damage), injuries, and fatalities.
The proposed project would contribute to promoting DOT’s long-term safety goals through
decreasing the likelihood and cost of accidents by reducing truck VMT. The reductions in accidents
were estimated by the following crash categories: fatal, non-fatal injury, and property damage using
FDOT’s Statewide Mileage, Travel, and Accident Data. Cost estimates by type of accident from US
Department of Transportation were then applied to the number of accidents by type to monetize
the benefits associated with fewer accidents. The result is an avoidance of 3 fatalities, 60 injuries,
and 164 property damage only crashes and monetized safety benefits of $52.0 million over the 30
year analysis.
Non-monetized Safety Benefits:
As part of the development plan for the ILC, the Canaveral Port Authority has agreed to provide land
to the City of Cocoa for the construction of a new fire station. This station would provide additional
resources to respond to emergencies in the surrounding communities as well as provide services to
the logistics park itself.
Page 12 of 22
b. Secondary Criteria
i.
Innovation
The Canaveral Port Authority is using an innovative approach to accelerate the development of the
logistics park. Specifically, the port will work with prospective partners to develop design/build
agreements to streamline the efficiencies of bringing capacity on line. In addition, working in
conjunction with the St. Johns River Water Management District (SJRWMD), two wetland preserve
areas will be left untouched; by incorporating these areas into the design, the port has eliminated
the need to mitigate negative impacts.
ii.
Partnership
The Canaveral Port Authority strongly supports the development and use of Public/Private
Partnerships as part of its on and off port investments. The development of the logistics park will
include a variety of partnerships with companies, developers, the city, and the state. The
development order in place today demonstrates the state’s and city’s support and commitment to
the development of this site and the City of Cocoa has provided a letter of support for the project.
CPA continues to work with the City of Cocoa to formalize a partnership agreement.
c. Detailed Benefit Cost Analysis
The Benefit-Cost Analysis for this application is based upon the reduction in truck VMT resulting from
cargo handled through Port Canaveral and the ILC as compared to being handled at competitor
ports. The widening and improvement to SR 524 and the construction of internal roadways as part
of the ILC development represent critical investments necessary to support an accelerated
development of the facility. Without a grant award the project will advance at a much slower rate,
delaying and reducing the benefits of the project. The benefit-cost analysis captures only
incremental benefits and costs due to the project implementation. The benefits are based on
available traffic data, site development orders, planning data, and Port Canaveral staff input.
Detailed assumptions and parameters are provided in the tables below. This analysis focused on the
five major long-term outcomes outlined by the TIGER program: state of good repair; economic
competitiveness; quality of life; sustainability; and safety. Non-monetized and monetized benefits
were calculated for an analysis period of 30 years, beginning in 2018 and ending in 2047. Monetized
benefits were summed and discounted at rates of 3% and 7% annually.
i.
Understanding the Market
Estimates of reduced truck VMT due to the roadway improvements, the development of the ILC, and
expansion of Port Canaveral’s container operation are based on the impact of handling cargo
destined for the Orlando Metro Market through these facilities as opposed to competitor ports and
facilities in Tampa, Fort Lauderdale, Miami, Jacksonville, and Savannah. The Orlando Metro Market
served by Port Canaveral has conservatively been defined as a six county region including Brevard,
Volusia, Indian River, Seminole, Orange, and Osceola. On average, this market can be served by a
truck trip of 58 miles; the competitor ports range from 84 miles to 282 miles with an average shorter
distance of 70 miles. These distances are illustrated in Figure 4. The difference in mileage yields the
avoided truck VMT; the with and without grant conditions impact the time necessary to develop the
facilities and attract the cargo (8 years with grant; 15 years without grant). The cargo represents
new demand created by the growing Central Florida market. The six county area will see 1.2 million
new residents by 2040. Port Canaveral has developed cargo forecasts amounting to 400,000 TEUs
by 2040. The ILC, owned and developed by the Canaveral Port Authority, will help generate and
serve this cargo. The following summarizes the with grant and without grant scenarios:
Page 13 of 22
•
The without grant scenario assumes Port Canaveral advances the ILC project on a 15 year
schedule. Construction would commence in 2017. Roadway improvements would be
restricted to partial accessibility to the site as an initial phase. SR 524 improvements would
be initiated after thresholds were exceeded in a reactive nature. The Port would be limited
to marketing parts of the site as opposed to the entire site. Amenities would come on line
later, further impacting the marketability of the site. Eventually the site would reach full
build however it is assumed the delay would result in some traffic lost permanently.
•
The with grant scenario assumes Port Canaveral advances the ILC on a 7 year schedule.
Construction would commence with the grant award in 2017 and the ramp up of cargo would
begin in 2018. The roadway improvements (internal and external) would be constructed as
part of the initial site development activities, ensuring the entire site was accessible and that
the public roadways had sufficient capacity to operate safely and efficiently.

Traffic Forecast Methodology and Assumptions
Detailed truck trip forecasts for the ILC were developed by Cambridge Systematics based on site
development plans (shown below in Table 6) and port container forecasts provided by the Canaveral
Port Authority. These forecasts compare the difference in truck activity with and without the grant;
this amounted to a 8 year vs. 15 year development timeline.

The Institute of Transportation Engineers (ITE) Trip Generation Manual 8th edition was used to estimate
general and truck trips to be generated by the proposed ILC. Based on the development schedules and
truck trip generation rates for high-cube warehouse, truck traffic was estimated for with and without
grant scenarios, as shown In Table 7. Assumptions applied in the calculation are documented below:
1.
As soon as a warehouse is developed at the proposed ILC, truck trips will be generated.
2. When warehouses are developed at the proposed site on a delayed schedule due to
transportation infrastructure insufficiency (without grant), the portion of market demand
that cannot be served by the proposed site and Port Canaveral will be served by long haul
trucks from ILCs serving Port of Savannah (30%), Jaxport (30%), Port Everglades and Port
Miami (30% total), and Port Tampa Bay (10%). Therefore, the total number of truck trips
generated remains the same under with and without grant scenarios. The difference is the
vehicle miles traveled (VMT) under difference scenarios to serve the demand of the Orlando
Metro Market.

Methodology and Assumptions for Calculating Non-Monetized Benefits
As described in the traffic forecast methodology and assumptions, the difference in traffic patterns
between with and without grant scenarios is the VMT generated. The following methodology and
assumptions were used to calculate the average truck distance under the two scenarios (illustrated
in Figure 5). The resulted average distance is 32 miles for truck trips generated from the proposed
ILC, and 102 miles for truck trips from the ILCs of other ports.

Assumptions:
1. Distance A and B for truck trips through the proposed site are measured distances between
Orlando and the proposed site location, and between the proposed site location and Port
Canaveral. Distance A for truck trips through ILCs of other ports are measured distances
between Orlando and the ports assuming all ILCs are closely located around their Ports.
2. X% and Y% are estimated based on the mix of trucks (single-unit trucks vs. combination
trucks) generated given the ILC’s distance from the Orlando Metro Market.

Based on the average truck trip distances under with and without grant scenarios, non-monetized
benefits of the grant were calculated. Calculations of the non-monetized benefits are provided in
Table 8. All factors and values applied in the calculation of these non-monetized benefits are also
provided under Table 6.

To summarize, the analysis quantified a series of important non-monetized benefits, documented in
Table 9:
• Avoided Truck VMT. The TIGER VII project will eliminate 172.0 million truck vehicle miles of
travel (VMT) over the analysis period.
• Avoided Truck Ton-Miles. At 17.42 tons per loaded truck, the TIGER VII project will eliminate
1.7 billion truck ton-miles over the analysis period.
• Avoided Fuel Consumption. The fuel savings from avoided truck travel is estimated at 10.7
million gallons of diesel fuel over 30 years, as estimated based on ton-miles per gallon data.
• Net Reduction in Emissions. The production of emissions is proportional to the gallons of
fuel burned, the type of fuel, and the specifications of the engine burning the fuel.
Emissions avoided were estimated using the California Life-Cycle Benefit/Cost Analysis
Model (Version 5.0). The result is a total reduction of: 120 thousand metric tons of CO2, 25
metric tons of VOCs, 110 metric tons of NOx, and 9 tons of PM10, and 1 ton of SOx over the
analysis period.
• Net Reduction in Large Truck Crashes. Rates of heavy truck crashes per truck VMT were
developed from FMCSA and applied to the reduced VMT to estimate the corresponding
reduction in large truck crashes. The result is an avoidance of 3 fatalities, 60 injuries, and
164 property damage only crashes over the 30 year analysis.

Monetized Benefits
The monetized benefits for the 30 year analysis period are shown below for four of the five selection
criteria. State of Good Repair is comprised of the value of avoided roadway pavement due to
reduced truck VMT. The calculation considers truck VMT avoided and the average pavement damage
cost per truck mile of travel. Economic Competitiveness is comprised of the direct travel time
savings and operating cost savings to truck drivers based on the number of truck trips generated by
the site and the reduced truck trip VMT per trip. Sustainability is the social value of emissions. Safety
is comprised of the value of avoided fatal, non-fatal injury, and property damage crashes involving
heavy trucks. These benefits are summarized in Table 10.

Dear Secretary Foxx:
I am pleased to provide this letter in support of the Canaveral Port Authority’s efforts to obtain a TIGER grant. The goal
of their proposed project, Inland Port Logistics Center, will facilitate the creation of jobs, assist local businesses and create
new cargo business for Central Florida. This project promotes the President’s Ladders of Opportunity. I respectfully
request your consideration of this organization’s application for federal funding.
The Canaveral Port Authority is growing its cargo operation. Future growth will be dependent on logistics services and
warehouse/distribution center capacity. The Inland Port Logistics Center will provide part of this capacity but roadway
improvements are required. These roadway improvements will accommodate efficient access to the Inland Port which
will offer superior logistics, the availability of large buildings, close proximity to rail and highways, ample truck parking,
less traffic congestion and economic incentives. Furthermore, funding for this project will have a profound impact on the
local businesses in Brevard County, all of Central Florida and the Florida east coast.
Again, I encourage your consideration of this worthy cause. If I can be of further assistance in this matter, please do not
hesitate to contact me at the address below.
Sincerely,
Tom Goodson

The Honorable Anthony Foxx
Secretary
U.S. Department of Transportation
1200 New Jersey Avenue, SE
Washington DC 20590
Dear Secretary Foxx:
The American Association of Port Authorities (AAPA) is writing to express its strong
support for public seaports’ applications for this year’s TIGER awards. AAPA has been a
strong advocate for the program since its inception in 2009. TIGER has made real
improvements in our nation’s maritime transportation system and needed investments
in our freight infrastructure.
Founded in 1912, the AAPA is the unified and collective voice of the seaport industry in
the Americas. AAPA empowers port authorities, maritime industry partners and service
providers to serve their global customers and create economic and social value for their
communities. Our activities, resources and partnerships connect, inform and unify
seaport leaders and maritime professionals in all segments of the industry who deliver
prosperity around the western hemisphere. Our letter today is on behalf of our U.S.
members.
AAPA’s recently released freight infrastructure report, the “State of Freight” outlines the
integral role that TIGER has played in integrating ports into the planning process and
has helped facilitate the role ports and TIGER have contributed in developing the freight
network. With over 95% response rate to the survey, 71% of our AAPA ports say they
are working with their state on their state freight plans and 63% are part of freight
advisory committees. Port eligibility for TIGER and available funding has driven this
engagement.
One of the continued values of TIGER from a maritime perspective is that it leverages
considerable private, state and local investments in seaport infrastructure. Since 2009
TIGER grants have leveraged over $700 million in maritime projects alone. Ports are
incubators for public private partnerships and the combination of tools and the availability of TIGER funding will allow our ports to facilitate and finance projects that might
otherwise lay dormant.
For example, these grants have helped fund seaport intermodal connectors and facilities
(including rail, road and short sea shipping); wharf and dock rehabilitation and expansion; improvements in yards, piers, breakwaters and cranes; and improvements overall
to rail movements throughout the U.S. to improve freight mobility.
American seaports and their private-sector partners annually spend more than $9 billion collectively in marine terminal capital improvements that help handle freight and
cruise passengers more efficiently. TIGER grant investments in port projects move these
projects forward.
The governments of Canada and Mexico are making large investments in their freight
transportation system, including their seaports. Goods imported and exported do not
need to go through U.S. ports. If we do not maintain our infrastructure, more freight will
flow through neighboring countries. In order to keep these important maritime jobs at
home, the U.S. government must make significant investments in seaport infrastructure.
The “State of Freight” survey called for $28.9 billion in need of freight landside infrastructure investments by 2025. TIGER is the primary tool the federal government has in
helping ports make landside improvements.
As the Department of Transportation begins to evaluate the applications for this seventh
round of TIGER funds, we strongly urge you to provide 25 percent or more of the funds
for seaport, last mile freight related projects to help maintain and expand the maritime
infrastructure that is so critical to this nation’s exports and imports, which are vital to
our nation’s economy and standard of living, as well as U. S. jobs.

Kurt J. Nagle
