WINNIPEG — Over two years, the Manitoba government will invest $36.4 million to the Arctic Gateway Group (AGG) for rail infrastructure projects at the Port of Churchill.
The money will go towards the AGG’s port and rail development vision to expand traffic diversification and attract private investment partners from the agriculture, mining, fertilizer and resupply sectors.
Planned works include wharf repairs and freight warehouse upgrades.
The AGG is a subsidiary company of OneNorth, a partnership of 41 First Nation and Bayline communities in Manitoba.
In August 2024, AGG and Hudbay Minerals Inc. piloted a successful 10,000-tonne zinc concentrate export shipment through the port, establishing Churchill as a northern trade critical minerals supply route, a release reads.
