Executive Summary

Port Capacity at Scale: Structural/Engineering Support on a 93-Acre Terminal Modernization.

Project Synopsis

Public scope: JAXPORT awarded a $48.8M construction services contract to Superior Construction Company LLC for terminal improvements supporting the SSA Jacksonville Container Terminal at Blount Island. The modernization is described as a $72M, 93-acre capacity expansion (77 acres in first seven phases) with densified pavement, gates, and systems (electrical/fire suppression/LED lighting). JAXPORT documents also point to the multi-year modernization as a throughput capacity expansion with quantifiable TEU impacts.

STEARZ Service Summary

STEARZ service summary: The STEARZ overview lists structural and design/engineering services as part of terminal repairs. In port terminal modernization, this kind of scope commonly aligns with structural condition/repair packages, heavy-duty pavement/structure interfaces, and acceptance documentation amid active operations. Unspecified: whether STEARZ supported pavement densification QC, fire suppression witnessing, or gate systems civil interfaces.
