CFIRE Completes Phase II of the Wisconsin Commercial Ports Study

Mid-America Freight Coalition 

In the study, “Leveraging Our Comparative Advantage, Phase II: Identification and Development of Wisconsin Port Market Scenarios,” CFIRE identifies four marine highway corridors and compares their feasibility, cost, and potential for mode diversion to parallel highway corridors. The corridors include three Great Lake corridors as well as the Mississippi River. In nearly every scenario, the marine corridors can offer lower cost service to Wisconsin shippers, businesses and industry.
