The first section of the expansion and modernization works at Gamboa Pier in the Port of Rio de Janeiro has been completed. Gamboa Pier, inaugurated in 1910, is one of the oldest areas in the Port of Rio de Janeiro. The structural works, with an investment of R$120 million, began last year to deepen the berths and enable the operation of larger vessels. According to information from the PortosRio Engineering department, the project covers a total length of 600 meters of the pier, of which 200 meters have now been released, while 290 have already been completed. The completion of all works is scheduled for the first half of 2024. Following the modernization of Gamboa Pier, the Port Authority plans to dredge the area, opening up opportunities for new businesses.
