Fairview Terminal Expansion

With the fastest connection from Asia to North American markets, Prince Rupert plays a critical role in getting Canadians the goods they need.

The Fairview Container Terminal was the first dedicated intermodal (ship to rail) container terminal in North America when it began operation in 2007. The terminal has grown to become a major trans-Pacific trade gateway with a global reputation for speed, reliability and reach.

DP World Prince Rupert has been operating the Fairview Container Terminal since 2015. Since that time, cargo volumes have grown more than 35% from approximately 700,000 TEUs (twenty-foot equivalent units) to over 1 million TEUs. Significant investments in personnel, terminal infrastructure, and equipment have been made to achieve this growth which supports local direct and indirect employment as well as increasing volumes of Canadian and international trade.

Expansion Project

To support further growth and market demand, we have invested to increase the Prince Rupert Fairview terminal's sustainable capacity to 1.6 million TEUs — completed in July 2022.

Description

Expansion completed in 2022.

Key project components included:

• Expansion of the container yard to the south of the existing terminal
