The Galveston Wharves will embark on a major capital improvement project next year after being awarded $42.3 million by the Texas Department of Transportation, port authorities announced Friday. "This is the single largest amount of funding ever received by the port," said port director and CEO Rodger Rees. "These shovel-ready projects will expand our cargo business, improve traffic flow and make it safer for pedestrians to access cruise operations and downtown Galveston." The bulk of the funds, $36 million, will support a proposed $50.
