A US$24 million grant from the Florida
Department of Transportation is set to push
Port Canaveral’s harbour widening and deepening
project four years ahead of schedule.
The project will see the 400-ft channel
widened by 100-ft and deepened by two-ft
along the length of the manmade harbor, and
will enable the passage of larger cruise and
cargo ships.
The project is now expected to be completed
towards the end of 2014.
