AI Article Summary

The Vancouver Fraser Port Authority is set to start the bidding process in July 2025 for constructing the Roberts Bank Terminal 2, a new container superport in Metro Vancouver. The project, which received federal and provincial approvals in 2023, aims to significantly boost the region's container handling capacity and is expected to create thousands of jobs. The superport, with an estimated cost of over $2 billion, is scheduled for partial completion by the mid-2030s, pending procurement processes and environmental compliance. The first phase of construction involves land reclamation, with bidders shortlisted through a Request For Qualifications process.
