Commercial ports continually invest in infrastructure and technologies to provide future capacity, to efficiently integrate landside connections, and to meet the societal needs of the wider community. Port owners have emphasized the need for a resource that can assist them as they prepare plans, evaluate the feasibility of their plans, and estimate the financial performance of their projects to attract public and private investment. The aim of this paper is to provide an overview of the contents of the Port Planning & Investment Toolkit (PP&IT), a guiding resource for ports that are developing a funding/financing strategy for capital improvements. This paper focuses on how to use the toolkit and how awareness and knowledge of the PP&IT within the port community can benefit a Port’s chances of funding and/or financing a capital investment.
