Travel Lift Feasibility Study

Client: City of Cordova

Location: Cordova, AK

Year: 2004

Role: Analyst

We evaluated the feasibility of a travel lift in Cordova, including a market analysis, location and size recommendations, and an assessment of the financial impacts of operation. The market analysis included estimating the number of vessels that might use a travel lift, based on the current and expected fleet composition, and phone interviews with vessel owners operating in Prince William Sound. This work took place in 2003–2004.
