Construction of the San Fernando Port in Barangay Poblacion started last January 2022. It is a P 335,014,472.15 project sourced from the Department of Transportation and built by the WTG Construction and Development Corporation. It shall consist of new port facilities with roro (roll on, roll off) ramps, complete mooring fixtures and lighting facilities and auxiliary buildings.
Land, rocks and soil quarried from different parts of the country have been transported by huge trucks and barges to the sea shore, about ten meters away from the shoreline to start the reclamation which will cover 35 to 40 hectares.
Once completed in May 2023, the facility will form part of the Central Spine Roro Route Project of the DOTr that aims to make sure that roro (roll on, roll off) facilities are in place to cater to trade and tourism needs. The port is expected to cater to vessels plying from the town to Tubigon and Jagna ports in Bohol, to the municipalities of Mambajao and Mahinog in Camiguin and then finally stop at harbors in Balingoan and Cagayan de Oro in Misamis Oriental.
Several residents in the barangay are worried that their fishing livelihoods may be compromised with the construction of the port.
