Florida Seaport System Plan - SeaCIP

Florida Seaport System Plan
1.3 Florida’s Seaports within the Larger State
Transportation Program
Figure 1.1 illustrates how seaport planning is coordinated with other modal
plans in the State’s overall transportation planning framework. Florida’s
waterways and marine terminals are addressed through two separate plans; the
Waterway System Plan, covering all of Florida’s navigable waterways
(including harbors); and the Seaport System Plan, covering Florida’s 14
deepwater seaports (landside and water side). Figure 1.2 shows how the
Seaport System Plan builds on, and is coordinated with, other established
planning and funding processes and programs. While there is overlap among
the various plans, they are developed by different agencies at different times
and for different purposes. The Seaport System Plan serves as a coordinated
“clearinghouse” for various identified seaport-related needs, and as a means of
establishing priorities for state-level investments.
