Guided by our recent Master Development Plan and with support from our partners, community and Indigenous rights holders, we are rising to the challenge of climate change with an ambitious transition plan that promises sustainable solutions for our region and the world.

Guided by our recent Master Development Plan and with support from our partners, community and Indigenous rights holders, we are rising to the challenge of climate change with an ambitious transition plan that promises sustainable solutions for our region and the world.

This vision was validated through an engagement process that gathered input from community stakeholders, Indigenous rights holders and Port partners, tenants and clients.

Key Drivers for the Plan

  • Environmental Sustainability

  • Opportunities created by climate change and new development

 

Industrial Development

  • Opportunities to seek new industrial partners that operate in a sustainable manner

 

Technological Innovation

  • Opportunities to seek partners suited to the region who embrace highly productive, low cost industrial processes

 

Governance

  • Opportunities to establish private-public partnerships to leverage investment in multi-year infrastructure projects

 

Policy

 

  • Opportunities to align and strengthen provincial/federal policies to establish a clear and attractive development regime for the region

 

Indigenous Rights Holders and Community Stakeholders

  • Opportunity to foster understanding and support through meaningful dialogue and new partnerships

 

Development phases


Phase I 2022-2032 – Maximizing cargo throughput and activating new uses
 

  • Secure new maritime-dependent industrial users to take advantage of existing infrastructure and drive additional cargo

  • ‘Green’ port operations as much as possible

  • Establish a cluster of industrial activity that includes import/export of processed materials with traditional liquid and dry bulk

  • Explore opportunities to develop a Green Energy Hub through new partnerships, and agreements, and by working with regulators to lay the foundation for first-of-their-kind developments in New Brunswick. Explore opportunities to develop light manufacturing and high-visibility commercial real estate in new locations on Port property

 

Phase II 2032-2052 – Establishing the Green, Diverse Port
 

  • Establish BPA as a leader in green energy and green industrial processes Balance maritime-dependent uses with other commercial and industrial development

Ocean

In late 2020, the Port launched a long-range planning process to guide future development. Working with experts in marine transportation and green energy, we developed a vision for a highly diverse, dynamic port that will drive growth and prosperity while supporting a green economic transition for the north.
