The Geraldton Port Maximisation Project (PMaxP) is an infrastructure endeavour to expand the capacity of the Geraldton Port to accommodate for a forecasted rise in trade. The project will involve:
- demolition and reconstruction of the berth, half with associated ship loading and material handling infrastructure;
- the removal of unused legacy assets which currently inhibit port expansion opportunities;
- 2 Truck unloaders;
- the relocation of the tug boat harbour;
- the relocation of pilot boats and associated land based workshop/offices;
- rationalisation of port infrastructure to reduce operational maintenance costs; and
- other associated infrastructure, such as road works, additional vessels, operations precinct, maintenance facilities and shore tension units.
