Just one month after The Port of Virginia set its single-month record for TEU volume, that record has been eclipsed.  In May, the port handled 230,511 twenty-foot equivalent units (TEUs), an increase of 13 percent increase when compared with the same month last year. The port set its previous mark for monthly TEU volume in March, having handled 229,000 units.  “We are on pace to show significant growth – set records -- for both the calendar and fiscal year,” said John F. Reinhart, CEO and executive director of the Virginia Port Authority. “So our effort is to continue to reinvest in facilities, equipment and people to be able to deliver consistency to all port users and improve service for motor carriers.”  Some of the reinvestments include:  • A temporary yard / stack for rail containers at Virginia International Gateway (VIG) (set for completion at the end of June) that will create more velocity in the main stack for motor carriers.  • The addition of 1,000 new chassis to Hampton Roads Chassis Pool by summer’s end (500 lease and 500 purchased).  • Implementation of an automated gate at Norfolk International Terminals (NIT).  • Continuing the Saturday gate hours at VIG, NIT and the Pinners Point Container Yard (PPCY).  • The addition of several new members to the port’s operations team.  • At Portsmouth Marine Terminal, improvements and repairs to the berth along with maintenance dredging to ensure 43 feet of alongside depth.
