The Massachusetts Port Authority (Massport) in the USA will take delivery of four Konecranes RTGs in 2019.

The Massachusetts Port Authority (Massport) will operate four more Konecranes RTG by the end of 2019. The cranes will be delivered to Conley Terminal in Boston, where Massport will operate a fleet of twelve Konecranes RTGs. The order was booked in 2018.

The Konecranes RTGs on order are 16-wheel machines lifting 40-ton containers 1-over-5, at six container rows wide plus truck lane. They will be equipped with the Konecranes Active Load Control (ALC) system, which eliminates container sway. They will also be equipped with the Auto-steering feature.
