This Friday (9), the Service Order for the revitalization and construction of the ports of Mojó, Mocajituba, and Timbuba, in Paço do Lumiar, will be signed. The construction will be carried out by the Government of Maranhão, through the State Secretariat for Cities and Urban Development (Secid), in partnership with the Municipality’s City Hall.

More Than 2,000 Families Benefited

The main source of income for residents in the region is fishing, which is also an economic, cultural, and urban mobility attraction. In the municipality alone, about 2,000 families benefit.

According to the Government of Maranhão, the new ports will provide the community with an updated facility, where the architectural model of leisure areas is present in big cities.

The construction includes a wooden deck, cement cladding, rubberized flooring, pergolas, a landscaped area with fencing, and new asphalt paving. Furthermore, a complete waterproofing system and electrical and plumbing installations will be put in place. The locations will feature leisure spaces, including an outdoor gym and children’s playgrounds.

The deadline for the completion of construction in Maranhão is 6 months. The revitalization of the ports will assist in the marketing of fishermen’s produce, according to the state government. In addition to fish, the municipality is also well-known for its oyster, sururu, and sarnambi markets, specialties of Maranhão cuisine.

Maranhão Expands Porto do Itaqui for Fuel Distribution

In April, Ultrapar announced that construction will be undertaken at Porto do Itaqui. This involves a new terminal with a static capacity of at least 79,000 m³ in the area leased for fuel distribution at Porto do Itaqui, in Maranhão’s capital, São Luís. The port operations will commence 5 years from the contract date.

For this to happen, the company’s investment must be at least R$ 310 million. According to Ultracargo, a subsidiary of Ultrapar, the investment for the terminal’s construction is directly linked to the company’s profitability and expansion strategy.

The company states that Porto do Itaqui has a strategic location for fuel distribution in Brazil, where Ultracargo already manages the operations of a terminal of over 100 m³. Thus, the terminal to be built in Maranhão will be interconnected with the current one, providing clients with greater flexibility in fuel transportation.
