A short-term drayage truck and chassis parking lot is being proposed on an 18.63‑acre site near the Los Angeles-Long Beach seaport complex.
The proposed John S. Gibson Truck and Chassis Parking Lot project, to be developed at 1599 John S. Gibson Blvd. in San Pedro, would include paving part of the site and striping about 393 stalls for trucks and chassis, as well as the addition of a new signal and median changes at the intersection of John S. Gibson Boulevard and the driveway of the proposed project, according to the Port of Los Angeles.
The site would be used for trucks and chassis as temporary parking “as chassis with or without containers are not anticipated to be parked on site over 24 hours,” according to the port.
The location is not a port-owned property.
The project would occur in one development phase and would need an amendment to the Port of Los Angeles Master Plan, and the POLA is asking the public to weigh in on the project’s draft Environmental Impact Report, which can be reviewed at portoflosangeles.org/ceqa.
The public has until Jan. 10 to offer written comments to ceqacomments@portla.org. The subject line of the email must include the project title: “John S. Gibson Truck and Chassis Parking Lot Project.”
Comments may also be sent via letter addressed to: Director of Environmental Management, Los Angeles Harbor Department, 425 South Palos Verdes St., San Pedro, CA 90731
The Port of LA also plans to hold a virtual public meeting on Zoom to receive comments on the Draft EIR at 4 p.m., Wednesday, Dec. 11. No registration is required.
More information on the project is available at portoflosangeles.org/ceqa.
