Expansion plans include the construction of four 1 million-gallon bulk liquid storage tanks, which will expand the terminal’s capabilities by 25%, according to the company.

Upon completion, the terminal will provide 22 bulk liquid storage tanks with a total storage capacity of 21 million gallons, according to Westway.

According to Terry Fleming, the terminal manager, the project will generate 15 to 20 local construction jobs and add two full-time employees.

Westway’s terminal at the Port of Greater Baton Rouge, on the Mississippi River, is a strategic location for the company, boasting “excellent intermodal capabilities with access to oceangoing vessels, barge, rail and truck,” according to Westway.
