The river's deep channel — quay depths around 12.5 m — lets ocean-going vessels reach the riverfront, where facilities lean towards breakbulk and project cargo. Container traffic, by contrast, is concentrated at the major terminals on the New Orleans bank, such as the Napoleon Avenue Container Terminal.
