The Bayside Port Corporation, located on the St. Croix River of the Bay of Fundy midway between St. Stephen and St. Andrews, has three shipping berths with lengths of 100, 80, and 140 metres and corresponding depths of 8.1, 6.5, and 9.75 metres. The approach channel has a depth of 21.3 metres. A ship loader is used for quarried material.
The Bayside Marine Terminal is a two-berth facility. The main source of traffic is in the areas of gypsum, a byproduct of the exhaust scrubber at the nearby Emera natural gas combustion power plant, and potatoes. The new private non-containerized temperature sensitive foods storage facilities will increase total volume of traffic, making Bayside one of the most important and fastest growing ports in the Maritimes.
