Annacis Auto Terminal Optimization Project

About the project

The Vancouver Fraser Port Authority—in partnership with Wallenius Wilhelmsen Solutions (WW Solutions)—is leading the proposed Annacis Auto Terminal Optimization Project at the Port of Vancouver in Delta. The project will improve efficiency of the terminal’s existing operations and increase its capacity to handle a greater volume of automobile imports in the future.

The project will also allow the port authority to consolidate two existing port automobile terminals into one at the Annacis Auto Terminal.

Annacis Auto Terminal improvements include:

• Expanding two existing terminal rail yards
• Installing electric vehicle charging stations
• Replacing some terminal buildings with a new vehicle processing facility

This project was identified as a priority by the Greater Vancouver Gateway 2030 Strategy, which recommends ways to improve the region’s trade network, while addressing community impacts of goods movement.

The project is funded by the Government of Canada through the National Trade Corridors Fund, the port authority and the terminal operator, WW Solutions.

Regulatory review

The port authority’s federal mandate is to enable trade through the Port of Vancouver while protecting the environment and considering local communities. We ensure port projects meet these requirements through our PER process.

For questions about the port authority’s PER process, please contact the port authority at PER@portvancouver.com or 604.665.9047.
