The Maritime Administration awarded the Commonwealth of Virginia, operating as the Virginia Port Authority (VPA), an $18.6 million project grant under the National Infrastructure Investments program (CFDA 20.933) on May 19, 2026, with an ultimate completion date of December 30, 2028. This capital investment funds comprehensive wharf improvements and engineering services at Richmond Marine Terminal (RMT) to enhance port infrastructure capacity and operational efficiency. The project delivers two primary components: (1) engineering and design services including site surveys, geotechnical investigations, tie-back rod assessments, preliminary and final design documents, and stormwater management planning to support mobile harbor crane operations; and (2) wharf infrastructure improvements consisting of installation of a pile-supported relieving platform and approach slab designed to increase the load-bearing capacity of the existing 1930s-era concrete gravity wall to accommodate simultaneous operation of two cranes and support projected barge growth. The project is expected to generate measurable economic and environmental outcomes, including quarterly tracking of Twenty-foot Equivalent Unit (TEU) movements within the project study area to assess freight movement impacts and calculation of highway mile savings resulting from the elimination of surface road transportation. These improvements to Richmond Marine Terminal's working capacity directly support the VPA's strategic role in enhancing port competitiveness and infrastructure modernization across Virginia's maritime transportation network.Federal Project Grant Award Summary
