  • Delayed Decision Hasn't Cooled Container Terminal Fight
    Advertise Newsletter Subscribe Share Transportation Delayed decision hasn’t cooled container terminal fight Ottawa postpones decision on $3.5 billion Roberts Bank Terminal 2 project until next year By Chuck Chiang | September 25, 2020, 2:04pm GCT Global Container Terminals Inc., operator of the Deltaport terminal, opposes the Vancouver Fraser Port Authority’s plan for another container cargo facility nearby | Chung Chow Ottawa’s decision on a controversial plan to build a new, multibillion-dollar container terminal at Delta’s Roberts Bank has been pushed to next year, but neither the project’s proponents nor its critics appear ready to give ground in the dispute over the proposed facility. Terminal 2, a project led by the Vancouver Fraser Port Authority (VFPA), would create via landfill an additional 2.4 million 20-foot equivalent units of annual container capacity for the port at a cost of potentially more than $3.5 billion. While the port authority is adamant that the new terminal is crucial to meet increased container capacity demand on the West Coast through the mid-2030s, opponents are equally adamant that there are more cost-effective and environmentally sustainable ways to meet that demand. In August, federal Environment and Climate Change Minister Jonathan Wilkinson said that Ottawa would wait for the port authority to provide additional information – such as how officials will address a list of environmental mitigation measures recommended by an independent review panel earlier this year – before making a final decision on Terminal 2.
