OPERATIONS UPDATES – COVID-19
WEEKLY OPERATIONS UPDATE – MONDAY 07/27/20
- We continue to see an uptick in chassis utilization levels across all intermodal markets, especially in the Western region, which is currently experiencing a spike in imports.
- LA-LB Port Complex serviced 21 additional cargo vessels over the past 4 weeks. An increase in import volumes has caused a spike in dwell times at warehouses in the region due to limited storage space. For more information, visit http://pop-lalb.com/
- TRAC continues its fleet readiness programs, including M&R and Safety Stock to make road-ready chassis available for customers once trade rebounds.
- TRAC’s field operations continue to serve customers in all markets. In addition, our office employees are equipped to seamlessly support our customers and service partners via phone or email in a secure and productive environment, while working remotely.
- Ocean carriers are expecting a slow recovery into Q3 and Q4 with encouraging signs visible earlier this month. However, with an increase in new infections being reported in U.S., the outlook for the balance of 2020 remains difficult to predict.
