Yesterday, GLDD was proud to join community, industry, and government leaders in celebrating the ribbon cutting for the Freeport Harbor Channel Improvement Project.
As the contractor for the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers Galveston District, Great Lakes Dredge & Dock (GLDD) is proud to have delivered this important infrastructure project. The channel improvements will help strengthen Port Freeport’s role in global commerce, enhance supply chain efficiency, and create lasting economic opportunities for the region and beyond.

We are proud to play a role in building the infrastructure that keeps America’s ports competitive, connected, and prepared for the future.
