Port of L.A. Begins Work on Intermodal Railyard

Port of Los Angeles officials broke ground Jan. 16 on a new intermodal storage railyard connecting the port and the Alameda Corridor. When completed, the $137.7 million Berth 200 rail project will move cargo more safely and efficiently, reduce truck traffic on roads and freeways and improve regional air quality, officials said. It also will enable track space at the TraPac container terminal to serve as TraPac's future on-dock rail facility.
