Pilbara Ports is progressing the development of a new multi-user facility and logistics hub at Lumsden Point in the Port of Port Hedland.
The Lumsden Point development will deliver two new common-user berths within the Port of Port Hedland, enhancing critical port infrastructure and capacity. The project will support the importation of renewable energy infrastructure, including wind turbines and blades, and is expected to play a key role in enabling the mining sector’s transition to lower-emissions operations.
Lumsden Point will include dredging of channel access and turning basins, construction of two new multi-user berths, and a central access road and service corridor connecting to Great Northern Highway, enabling private sector investment in a landside logistics hub.
This port expansion will help to position Port Hedland at the forefront of future green industries, helping drive WA’s transition to renewables, unlocking trade and investment opportunities and creating hundreds of new jobs.
The Commonwealth Government is investing $565 million to support common user port upgrades in the Pilbara, part of which will enable the development of Lumsden Point. This is in partnership with the Western Australian Government, which has committed $96.6 million to the project.
