Geography
The Port of Morgan City terminal facility is located at GIWW WHL Mile Marker 95.  The Port of Morgan City is the focal point of waterborne transportation in four directions.  Traffic between points in the southwest United States and the Upper Mississippi River Valley saves approximately 342 miles per round trip by using the Morgan City-to-Port Allen Alternate Route rather than the Intercoastal via the Harvey Locks at New Orelans.
