Trucker Strike Enters Day Four

Posted 05/07/2015

Today, Thursday, April 30th, marks day four of the trucker strike at the ports of Los Angeles and Long Beach. Truckers continue to protest against being classified as independent contractors and instead want to be considered as employees with the right to join a labor union.

With the truckers picketing at both cargo and rail terminals, both ports have experienced delays in cargo movement. Currently, four terminals are seeing truck turn times of over 100 minutes, and the potential exists that delays may increase throughout the day.

We will continue to keep you updated on the impact of this strike.
