  • 2018 Update of Tables and Figures
    2018 Update of Tables and Figures August 2019 INTRODUCTION This document provides an update to the majority of data tables and figures provided in the Florida Department of Transportation’s (FDOT) 2015 Florida Seaport System Plan. The annual updating of seaport system plan data allows FDOT to: implement the plan using the latest industry metrics; provide analysis of long-term trends; and, provide a foundation for future five-year plan updates. The information collected for this update are the 2018 seaport metrics including the number of containers in twenty-foot equivalent units (TEUs), cargo tonnages, total number of revenue cruise passengers, and several other items. The primary source of the data is the individual Florida Seaports and the Florida Seaport Five-Year Mission Plans. In addition, some of the data comes from official government sources. Maintaining this data on an annual basis will lay the foundation of information necessary for the 2020 Florida Seaport Plan to build upon. The purpose statement and vision of the 2015 plan are restated below. The updated Figures and Tables follow. It should be noted, not all tables and figures in the 2015 plan were updated as: some data sources are not updated annually; some source data has not been updated; or, the 2015 data is still up to date. STATEMENT OF PURPOSE This 2015 Florida Seaport System Plan was prepared in accordance with the statutory requirements of Section 311.14(1), Florida Statutes (F.S.). The development of this plan, along with other modal plans developed under the Freight, Logistics, and Passenger Operations (FLP) Office at the Florida Department of Transportation (FDOT), provides the Department with a cohesive planning process for all the modal offices.
