AECOM has been selected by DP World Prince Rupert to conduct feasibility and design study for the development of the second container terminal at the Port of Prince Rupert. Once complete, the terminal will be a low impact, fully electric terminal that combines leading edge technologies with a unique intermodal operating model to facilitate an efficient and sustainable transportation network.AECOM will undertake a study of the project to determine the technical and financial feasibility of developing the terminal, together with the baseline studies that will be required for environmental approvals.AECOM’s scope of services and key components of the feasibility study are expected to encompass the development of a preferred operational plan and examination of alternatives; examination of operating costs; review of technologies and green energy plans; review of area roads and rail networks; geotechnical and other site investigations to inform development and design recommendations; review with BC Hydro to determine power needs; environmental investigations; project permitting; preliminary design; cost estimating; project scheduling; and risk review and mitigationDP World Prince Rupert will operate the planned Logistics Park on Ridley Island and currently operates the Fairview Container Terminal, which is undergoing expansion. By working symbiotically with these existing terminals, the Second Terminal is anticipated to double the Port of Prince Rupert’s overall container capacity, adding at least two million twenty-foot equivalent units annually.
