Georgia Ports Container Volumes Slip as Savannah Expansion Push Continues

Georgia Ports Authority reported a 2.5% decline in container volumes through April, with the Port of Savannah handling 4.7 million TEUs (down 118,422 TEUs) and moving 443,650 TEUs in April alone, a nearly 14% decline from April 2025. Despite softer market conditions, GPA is advancing a $5 billion 10-year expansion program including five new container berths in Savannah and a new Roll-on/Roll-off berth in Brunswick. The Gainesville Inland Port opened May 4, expected to shift 26,000 containers from truck to rail in its first year.
