"A single barge is the only vessel to call at the port so far this season with only 10 more expected through August, according to port director Marc Van Dongen. The barge dock needed $2.2 million in repairs this year, though that's lower than the $3 million it was expected to cost."

That pretty much says it all.  Better sink a few more millions into that "rail line to nowhere" to reach this "port to nowhere" that would be at the end of the "bridge to nowhere".
