The Port of Vinton is a shallow-water port located on a navigable waterway in Vinton, La., near the Gulf Intracoastal Waterway (GIWW) and Interstate 10, eight miles east of the Louisiana-Texas border. It is conveniently accessible by water via the Vinton Navigation Channel (approx. 7.2 miles north of the GIWW) and by road via the Johnny Breaux Road (approx. 4 miles south of Interstate 10).
Over the last 10 years, the port has experienced significant growth and activity, including the construction of a $10 million pre-stressed concrete bridge girder and pile facility. The port’s assets include an 806-acre tract of land, a barge loading dock and a 20,500-square-foot commercial building. Within this acreage, there are currently several leasable sites bordering either the waterway or the roadway. In addition, the Port serves as landlord to companies offering services such as industrial painting and sandblasting, and concrete manufacturing.
