Key Regional Initiatives
Intermodal Logistics Center (ILC) Development • FDOT ILC Grant Program – $5 Million a year to support ILC development
• Existing and Proposed ILCs – FECI’s South Florida Logistics Center (underway) – Key Master Planned ILCs in Palm Beach, St. Lucie, Glades, and Hendry Counties
7
Key Regional Initiatives TIGER Grants
• 2013 TIGER Grants gave $474 million to 52 projects in 37 states • Florida DOT’s South Florida Freight & Passenger Rail Enhancement received $13.75 M – Improve linkage between CSX and FEC – Allow FEC to handle more traffic from Port Miami and Port Everglades – Improve regional passenger rail connectivity
8
Key Regional Initiatives
Florida Perishables Trade Coalition • January 2012 – FPTC formed to increase trade in perishable products through Florida’s airports and seaports • October 1, 2013 – Pilot program to bring grapes and blueberries from Peru and Uruguay begins – Cold-treated products can now arrive through Florida ports rather than entering through ports in the northeast and trucked south
• November 29, 2013 – Port Everglades receives its first container of grapes from Peru • December 2, 2013 – PortMiami receives first grape shipment 9
Key Regional Initiatives Transshipment Committee
• Prior to 9/11, transshipment was more than 22% of cargo trade at Port Miami – Now this cargo goes to Panama, Freeport, and Kingston
• Creation of a “Transshipment Committee” with CBP – Assignment of “Customer Service Manager” at CBP – “Outreach” role to work with FCBF on an “In-Bond” class – Terminals to provide CBP with advanced list of goods to help expedite review 10
Key Regional Initiatives
Customs and Border Protection • Reimbursable Services Authority – Creation of 5 Public-Private Partnerships • Dallas/Fort Worth International Airport • The City of El Paso, Texas • South Texas Assets Consortium • Houston Airport System • Miami-Dade County
– Services can include all Customs and Immigration-related inspectional activities and covers all costs – December 2013 – Finalization of partnership agreements 11
Key Regional Initiatives Alternative Site Framework
• FTZ No. 281: Miami-Dade County – Serves a broader area – New expedited process – Reduce number of unused FTZ sites – 23 “Magnet” and “Usage-Driven” sites created to date, amounting to about 1.8 million sq. ft.
12
Preliminary Stakeholder Input Seaports
• Port Miami – 2035 Master Plan Update recently completed which details priority projects – Key projects include: Channel Deepening, Post-Panamax Cranes, onport ICTF, Port Tunnel – Effective use of P3’s is seen as critical to investment strategies – Improvements on key landside corridors and connectors will be critical for market access – Transshipment and perishable markets are a priority, requiring changes or modifications to regulations
13
Preliminary Stakeholder Input Seaports
• Port Everglades – CIP and MP detail priority projects; MP update currently underway – Key projects include: STN Widening, Post-Panamax Cranes, on-port ICTF, Eller Drive Overpass, and Deep Dredge and Widening – Current Master Plan Update will refine the projects and schedules – Effective use of P3’s is seen as critical to investment strategies – Traffic flows on-port have severe peaks now; future growth will worsen the flows – Improvements on key landside corridors and connectors will be critical for market access – Technology should be used effectively to facilitate traffic flows and enforcement activities 14
Preliminary Stakeholder Input Seaports
• Port of Palm Beach (draft pending interview) – CIP and MP detail priority projects – Key projects include: Slip Rehabilitation/Redevelopment, Intermodal Passenger and Cargo Terminal, Reefer Line Expansion, MLK Widening, FEC Connection Improvements – Improvements on key landside corridors and connectors will be critical for market access
15
Preliminary Stakeholder Input Airports
• Miami International Airport • • •
Capacity exists to serve additional growth based on $500 million in air cargo projects over last 10 years Targeting new international markets to augment Latin America Traffic – Middle East is emerging Truck parking, staging, fueling facility is needed
• Fort Lauderdale-Hollywood International Airport • • • • • 16
Air cargo volume has been on decline since 2008 Targeting European markets (passenger belly-cargo) Recent growth in Latin American markets No cargo capacity issues anticipated No major access issues reported
Preliminary Stakeholder Input Airports
• Palm Beach International Airport • • • •
Air cargo volume increase in 2010 due to FedEx arrival, flat since Not actively marketing or anticipating increased cargo activity/carriers Room to expand existing cargo ramp if demand warrants No cargo capacity issues anticipated
• General Aviation Airports •
All cargo activity at GA airports are non-scheduled charter flights using single and twin-engine prop aircraft •
• 17
E.g. Fort Lauderdale Executive has regular activity from 5 charter carriers based at Airport
Primarily used to move foodstuffs for island restaurants and resorts
Preliminary Stakeholder Input Rail
• FEC Railway – – – – – – –
18
– – –
Constructing leads to Port Miami and Port Everglades Developing on-port ICTFs at Port Miami and Port Everglades Working with Port Of Palm Beach to improve rail connection FDOT D6 conducting connector study for Hialeah Ramp Adding second track to Hialeah Ramp access point Hialeah Ramp entrance/exit gate complex to be rebuilt/expanded/automated Expanding siding/staging area in North Miami to build trains from Port Miami Fort Lauderdale Ramp to be redeveloped; possible staging for ethanol TIGER Grant award will shift cargo traffic in South Florida All Aboard will add double track capacity
Preliminary Stakeholder Input Rail
• CSX Transportation – CSX provides carload and box car service to South Florida – Focused on investments in Winter Haven Ramp and subsequent industrial/distribution facilities – South Florida investments/needs currently limited to local spurs – TIGER Grant award will shift cargo traffic in South Florida, providing an opportunity for CSX to connect to its Winter Haven facility – Balancing passenger and cargo operations in South Florida will be critical – Service to America’s Gateway ILC may impact South Florida – Service offerings will be market driven; municipal solid waste may be a market to service in South Florida as land fills close 19
Preliminary Stakeholder Input Roadways
• On-going truck driver survey providing input directly from the industry • Biggest roadway problems: – – – –
Congestion Distance to make lane changes Mid-block sight clearance Turning radii at intersections
• Biggest non-roadway problems: 20
– Availability of truck parking – Gate queues
Preliminary Stakeholder Input Roadways
• Bottlenecks identified thus far: Port Congestion SR 826 SR 836 Golden Glades NB to I-95 Construction on local MiamiDade roadways creates heavy congestion – Hours of construction create heavy road delays in some commercial areas – – – – –
21
– NW 25th St – South River Dr and Okeechobee Rd – Intersection lights not in sequence – Flooding (especially in Doral) creates heavy traffic in inclement weather; horrible drainage sewer system in all of Doral
