Port of Redwood City

Redwood City provides a cargo gateway for the southern part of San Francisco Bay. Its trade centres on bulk materials, including construction inputs and recyclable metals, serving an urban region where industrial waterfront space is limited. The port’s tenants connect marine transport with building supply chains and material recovery.

Vessels reach the municipal wharves through a channel leading into Redwood Creek. Cargo berths and industrial land support activities such as cement handling and scrap metal shipping, while the port manages its waterfront as a public agency funded through its operations.

The estate also includes a municipal marina and public access areas. Boat launching, walking and waterfront recreation therefore sit alongside commercial shipping, giving the port a local civic role as well as a place in the region’s freight network.
