Cavite Gateway Terminal under way

The Department of Transportation said the country’s first container barge terminal is set to open in Tanza, Cavite on Nov. 5 this year.

Cavite Gateway Terminal will allow trans-shipment of cargo from international ports in Manila to Cavite via barges and roll-on roll-off operations.

The terminal will be integrated with other major Luzon port facilities for cost-effective and time-bound access to the Cavite market.

“We are an archipelago, so this is really a no-brainer. This project is also proof that when the government and the private sector work together, beautiful things can happen,” Transportation Secretary Arthur Tugade said.

CGT, which was privately funded by port operator International Container Terminal Services Inc., has a capacity of 115,000 twenty-foot equivalent units.
