San Fernando port set for transformation

Manila: Palafox & Associates has won a contract worth P5m master planning design for Poro Point Freeport Zone in San Fernando, La Union.

Palafox will deliver a design by year-end that will unlock the potential of Poro Point’s port and airport facilities as well as its land accessibility.

Palafox will also come up with a feasibility study looking at privatizing the freeport zone under a private-public partnership. The freeport includes San Fernando International Seaport and the San Fernando Airport.

The opening in three months time of the Tarlac-La Union-Pangasinan expressway (TPLEX) should benefit the port.  [13/05/13]
