摘要：	The Port of Florence is located in north Alabama on the Tennessee River. Florence is part of the fastest-growing region of the state, with the larger cities of Decatur and Huntsville upriver to the west. The Florence Lauderdale County Port Authority (FLPA) oversees development and operations at the Port of Florence, a 45-acre intermodal transportation service facility that offers infrastructure and services for the handling of commodities and raw materials between rail, road and the waterway. "We are a leasehold port located at Mile 256 on the Tennessee River, and we also own infrastructure such as a warehouse, docks and a 40-ton bridge crane," said Hal Greer, director of the Port of Florence. "All facilities are leased out, and the main terminal is operated by Tennessee Southern Railroad (TSRR). The bridge crane is located at the main terminal. TSRR also provides short-line rail service between the port and CSX mainline located at Columbia, Tenn."
