California Nightmaring

Eyes are increasingly on Southern California and the bottleneck being created by the congestion in the port and in the terminals. Marine Traffic – a website for global ship tracking, shows the number of vessels at anchor off the ports of Los Angeles and Long Beach. Once berthed, the number of containers terminating locally are unable to be recovered by all the available appointment slots and shippers are partnering with a number of private sector entities to push the FMC to take action.
