Indiana's Port System
Located at "the Crossroads of America," Indiana's ports are ideally situated to access domestic
and international markets. Burns Harbor offers access to the Atlantic Ocean via the St. Lawrence
Seaway and the Gulf of Mexico via the Illinois and Mississippi Rivers. Jeffersonville and Mount Vernon
are both located on the Ohio River, the most modern waterway in the world, which transits more cargo
each year than the Panama Canal. Both of these ports have access to the Gulf of Mexico via the Inland Waterway System.
Indiana's ports are designed to quickly and efficiently transport products by truck, rail, barge or ship to
the manufacturing and agricultural markets of the country and the world. The ports offer onsite direct rail-to-water
transload facilities as well as extensive storage areas. To further assist with intermodal transportation,
distribution and logistics, the ports offer tenants and shippers a wide range of services, including tug, barge
fleeting, heavy-lift, railroad switching, a complete range of materials handling, waste disposal/sanitation,
security and fire protection.
