About the Atlantic Gateway

The Atlantic Gateway is a modern competitive and integrated air, rail, marine and road freight transportation network. It provides direct and reliable, access to and from the economic heartland of North America.

Located in Canada's east coast provinces of Nova Scotia (NS), New Brunswick (NB), Prince Edward Island (PEI), and Newfoundland and Labrador (NL), the Atlantic Gateway includes:

• strategic, ice‑free deep water ports ready to handle growing volumes from the world's largest ships;
• airports;
• intermodal facilities;
• border crossings; and
• essential road, rail and marine infrastructure

The Atlantic Gateway offers connection to, and seamless integration with, Canada's other gateways, and transportation systems that reach across North America.
