We work closely with public and private organizations to:</p><ul><li>develop and expand marine highway service options and facilitate their further integration into the current U.S. surface transportation system, especially where water-based transport is the most efficient, effective and sustainable option</li><li>highlight the benefits, increase public awareness and promote waterways as a viable (in some cases a superior) alternative to "landside" shipping and transportation options </li></ul><p style='box-sizing:border-box; margin-top:0px; margin-bottom:1rem; font-family:"Open Sans", sans-serif; color:rgb(33, 37, 41);'>We do not <em>directly</em> operate marine highway services.
