Ports of Auckland has today released its Draft 30-year Master Plan which outlines a range of projects needed for the port to keep up with the rising freight demand.
The project is being proposed as an intermediary solution as the Auckland Council, the owner of the port, has kicked off a project to find a new port location. But shifting the port might take up to 30 years.
The plan includes the automation of the container terminal, completion of a deep-water terminal berth and installation of three new cranes at Fergusson North Wharf, among other things.
