宾夕法尼亚州州长乔什·夏皮罗10月13日与州交通厅官员在南费城宣布，州政府将向费城港（PhilaPort）投入3.715亿美元资本金。这笔州投资预计将撬动超过2亿美元的私人投资和2.66亿美元联邦资金，组成一个总额逾8.37亿美元的增长计划，支持费城港历史上规模最大的一次扩建。
州政府表示，这些投资将帮助创造6000多个新岗位，产生4500万美元州与地方税收，并使费城港各设施的集装箱运力提升122%、汽车处理能力提升18%。州资本金的具体用途包括：3100万美元用于南港一号码头（Southport Berth I）疏浚；1.45亿美元用于南港二号码头（Southport Berth II）和北码头（North Wharf）的填海工程；1.094亿美元用于土地收购；5810万美元用于起重机和设备采购。
夏皮罗表示，费城港的历史可追溯300多年至宾夕法尼亚建州之初，至今仍是全球贸易的重要参与者和宾州经济的关键一环；他的政府正对该港进行历史性投资，支持其史上最大扩建，显著扩大运力并创造6000多个岗位，称这是对费城港的「游戏规则改变者」。州交通厅长迈克·卡罗尔表示，费城港是宾州交通网络的关键部分，连接全球贸易与本地社区。费城港首席执行官兼执行董事里奇·莱泽表示，这笔投资将帮助港口扩大运营、吸引新业务、提升市场份额，并创造数以千计可长期养家的岗位。国会众议员玛丽·盖伊·斯坎伦称，公共与私人投资共同涌向南费城，是对该地区工业未来和劳动力的强烈信心投票。
州政府称，费城港连续三年被评为全美效率最高的集装箱港；2025年，该港支撑了8000多个就业岗位，为宾夕法尼亚州带来近12亿美元经济产出。

Philadelphia Port Lands $837 Million Expansion, Largest in Its History; Container Capacity to Rise 122 Percent
Pennsylvania Governor Josh Shapiro and PennDOT officials gathered in South Philadelphia on October 13 to announce that the Commonwealth will invest $371.5 million in capital funding in the Port of Philadelphia (PhilaPort). The state investment is expected to unlock more than $200 million in private-sector investment and $266 million in federal funding, making more than $837 million available to support the largest expansion in the port's history.
The investments will help create more than 6,000 new jobs and generate $45 million in state and local taxes, as PhilaPort expands container capacity by 122 percent and auto capacity by 18 percent across its facilities, according to the Shapiro administration. The state capital funding includes $31 million for dredging at Southport Berth I; $145 million for reclamation work at Southport Berth II and the North Wharf; $109.4 million for land acquisition; and $58.1 million to support crane and equipment acquisition.
Shapiro said PhilaPort has a history spanning more than 300 years to the founding of the Commonwealth and remains a major player in global trade and a critical piece of the state's economy, calling the historic investment a game changer that will let the port significantly expand its capacity and create more than 6,000 jobs. PennDOT Secretary Mike Carroll said PhilaPort is critical to Pennsylvania's transportation network, connecting global trade to local communities. PhilaPort CEO and Executive Director Rich Lazer said the investment will help the port expand operations, attract new business and increase market share while creating thousands of family-sustaining jobs. Congresswoman Mary Gay Scanlon said the combination of public and private investment directed to South Philadelphia is a strong vote of confidence in the region's industrial future and workforce.
For three straight years, PhilaPort was named the most productive container port in the country, and in 2025 the port supported more than 8,000 jobs and contributed nearly $1.2 billion in economic output throughout Pennsylvania, according to the administration.
