Throughput has climbed steeply — from about 106,000 tonnes in 2018/19 to roughly 1.7 million tonnes in 2023/24. Two berths handle the traffic, served by a 100-tonne mobile harbour crane, additional mobile cranes, reach stackers and empty-container handlers, with a new dedicated terminal planned for hazardous cargo.
