Solid half year for Charleston

The MSC Michigan VII was released from detention and authorised to depart the Port of Charleston after 48 days.

Port says it is “quickly working ships and reducing its vessel queue” by pausing work at Wando Welch; “planned reopening” of the Leatherman Terminal should also ease congestion.

RoadOne is investing in a new distribution and transload facility in Summerville, with phase one opening in January 2025 and phase two in January 2027.

SC Ports commits to acquire land to bolster North Charleston Terminal‘s capacity as it readies for bigger ships.

Konecranes is to supply South Carolina Ports (SC Ports) with two RTGs for use at the port authority’s Inland Port Greer facility.

While Charleston’s overall container throughput fell by 11% in 2023 to 2.5M TEU, the volume of cargo moved to/from the port by intermodal rail services hit a record.
