Wisconsin Commercial Ports Development Initiative

The Center for Freight & Infrastructure Research (CFIRE)-led team will assess Wisconsin's commercial port infrastructure, their current and potential markets, and related policies and programs. This will require CFIRE to facilitate collaboration between the state's ports, industries, and logistics sector. These assessments will then be used to create a strategic action plan to attract sustainable markets, encourage community development, direct policy and programs in support of the state's ports, and support the economic growth of Wisconsin's commercial ports.
