Board oversees intermodal cargo at ports of Long Beach, Los Angeles

The governing board of the Intermodal Container Transfer Facility Joint Powers Authority will meet at 6 p.m., Wednesday, Sept. 11, at the Bob Foster Civic Chambers located at 411 W. Ocean Blvd., Long Beach, adjacent to the Port of Long Beach Administration Building. The meeting is open to the public and attendees are welcome to address the JPA Board. The draft meeting agenda includes administrative items and is available on the JPA’s website.

The ICTF serves to enhance the efficient flow of intermodal (truck and rail) cargo through the Port of Los Angeles and the Port Long Beach. The 148-acre facility is located approximately 5 miles north of the ports, at the northern terminus of State Highway 103, and is operated by Union Pacific.

The ICTF JPA is a public entity created in 1983 to oversee the development and operation of the ICTF. The JPA is administered by a governing board that operates separately and apart from the cities of Long Beach and Los Angeles.
