In an unusual year with historic challenges, Port Milwaukee (Wis.) finished 2020 with its highest annual cargo volume in the past seven years. Overall tonnage for the municipal port and the adjacent private docks in Milwaukee Harbor rose more than 5 percent, led by agricultural exports and handling of cement. "Port Milwaukee's resilience was on full display in 2020. We overcame flooding resulting from unusually high water levels on Lake Michigan at the start of the year. We also overcame the pandemic's sustained effect on the economy and on the port's essential operations," Port Director Adam Tindall-Schlieht said. "Our workforce, our partners, and our customers deserve enormous credit for this past year's successes." |
