Its shallow fairway of about 1.8 m no longer supports seagoing freight, and there is no container, customs or liner handling. For commercial shipments, Montreal lies roughly 100 km downstream and is the nearest capable port. Hawkesbury is therefore of limited freight relevance today.","url":"https://www.freight-academy.com/en/information/seaports/hawkesbury-port-ca-haw","markdownMirror":"https://www.freight-academy.com/api/md/seaports/en/hawkesbury-port-ca-haw","source":null,"provider":{"@type":"Organization","name":"Freight Academy","url":"https://www.freight-academy.com"},"quickSummary":"Hawkesbury · (UN/LOCODE: CA HAW) · Canada · Very Small · 1.8 m"}
