The Port of Duluth-Superior – Our Largest Freshwater Seaport
Posted January 1, 2024, Length: 22:07
The Port of Duluth-Superior, located at the western end of Lake Superior, is a national and international cargo hub, serving the Great Lakes and, through the St. Lawrence Seaway, the rest of the world. It supports flows of bulk cargoes such as grain, iron ore and coal, and project cargo – large construction equipment.
To learn about its unique role in logistics and the challenges it faces when winter sets in, we talk with Deb DeLuca, Executive Director of the Duluth Seaway Port Authority.
The Infrastructure Show is sponsored by Northwestern University.
