Governor Daniel J. McKee visited the Port of Davisville recently to cut the ribbon on the Port’s recently completed new berth. The Governor toured the construction at the Pier 2 modernization project, which will position Davisville to be a staging ground for future offshore wind projects. Governor McKee also toured North Atlantic Distribution (NORAD), which processes hundreds of thousands of automobiles annually before they are sent to car dealerships across the Northeast.
