NOTICE: Express Pass Changes - Effective June 1, 2024

Port Houston is working to enhance the Express Pass Program and better serve our customers. Express Pass is a timeless appointment system, allowing trucking companies to initiate trucking transactions prior to their arrival to Port Houston’s Barbours Cut and Bayport Container Terminals.

Beginning June 1, 2024, reservations through Express Pass are strongly encouraged for all truck visits. This is part of our first phase to reach 100% usage of Express Pass at our container terminals.

For additional information regarding this update and changes to enhance your Express Pass experience, please contact your Port Houston representative.
