FEDERAL ECONOMIC RECOVERY SPENDING
Name: California Green Trade Corridor/MarineHighway Project
Location: Oakland, Stockton & West Sacramento, CA
Sponsor: Ports of Oakland, Stockton & West Sacramento
Total Cost: $69,300,000
TIGER Funding: $30,000,000
Project Description:
The project is a collaborative effort of three regional ports in California to develop and use a marine highway system as an alternative to existing truck and rail infrastructure. The Port of Oakland along with the inland Ports of Stockton and West Sacramento have formed a partnership to provide freight service via barge, primarily for consumer goods moving by ocean vessel and agricultural products grown in Central California.
Highlights:
Supports an innovative partnership to create a marine highway alternative for high-value freight in Northern and Central California
Strengthens import and export markets and increases the economic competitiveness of California and the Nation
Each of the three ports to be upgraded--Oakland, Stockton and West Sacramento--is in an economically distressed area
Project Benefits:
The marine highway project will improve the quality of life for Northern Californians by reducing greenhouse gas emissions and air pollutants and relieving congestion and wear-and-tear on Northern and Central California’s highways. The project will help reduce round-trip and overall truck miles traveled to and from distribution centers and port facilities in the area, with corresponding savings in fuel costs achieved by shipping goods by barge rather than exclusively by truck.
