Turners Island is equipped with a roll-on-roll-off ramp for marine-marine or marine-rail transfers. Presently the terminals wharf is being reconstructed, with work to be completed this year. Upon completion, the terminal will be able to accommodate vessels up to 500 feet in length with a MLW draft of 25 feet. Currently there are three cranes at the terminal, two having 65-long ton capacities, and the third with a 130-long ton capacity. Construction of a fourth crane will be completed this year. The new crane will be barge mounted, 500-long ton capacity, and will be contracted to other Port facilities. This will give the Port of Portland an added competitive advantage and increase it's heavy lift capacity. |
