54 ReNew Canada
Vancouver Fraser Port Authority
To meet Canada’s coming capacity needs for containerized
trade, the Vancouver Fraser Port Authority is leading the Roberts Bank Terminal 2 Project, a proposed marine container terminal on Canada’s west coast. The project is in the final stages
of a federal environmental assessment process. If approved by
the federal government, the terminal will be a critical link for
Canada’s supply chains, increasing container terminal capacity
by more than 30 per cent on Canada’s west coast, supporting
competition in the gateway, and strengthening reliable access
to goods Canadians use every day.
There are three main components of the proposed project:
• A new three berth marine container terminal with throughput
capacity of up to 2.4 million twenty-foot equivalent (TEU) con-
tainers annually
• A widened causeway to accommodate additional road and rail
infrastructure
• An expanded tug basin to accommodate additional tugs
After considering the feedback received, and assessing procurement objectives, the port authority has decided to move
forward with a two-phased procurement approach. First, the
port authority will select a contractor to build the new landmass
and marine structures needed for the project. Then, prior to the
anticipated start of terminal operations, the terminal operator
will be selected to build, equip, and operate the new terminal
through a terminal concession agreement.
If the government approves the project, the port authority
anticipates that the request for qualifications to select a contractor to build the landmass could be issued within six to 12
months thereafter.
