The Maritime Administration (MARAD) awarded $4.35 million under the United States Marine Highway Grants program (CFDA 20.816) to the Commonwealth of Virginia, operating as the Virginia Port Authority, on May 13, 2026. The project involves infrastructure improvements at the Richmond Marine Terminal (RMT) designed to expand operational capacity and enhance safety through enhanced lighting systems. Specifically, the project will install approximately twenty 100-foot high mast light poles equipped with light emitting diode (LED) fixtures, complete with associated foundations, power systems, and conduits, as well as retrofit two existing structures with LED fixtures. The installation of this modernized lighting infrastructure will enable barge operations to extend beyond daylight hours, supporting increased maritime freight movements while improving facility safety and operational efficiency. The project is expected to be completed by January 1, 2028, with no subrecipient activities identified. Performance outcomes will be measured through two key metrics aligned with the Marine Highway Grants program objectives: freight movements tracked by twenty-foot equivalent unit (TEU) movements across the project study area to demonstrate economic competitiveness, and highway mile savings calculated based on the elimination of surface road miles that containers would have otherwise traveled, supporting environmental sustainability goals. The project includes architectural and engineering fees necessary to support these terminal infrastructure improvements.Federal Grant Award Summary
