PORT OF LOS ANGELES AUGUST CARGO REMAINS STRONG AS HIGH VOLUME CONTINUES | | |
After reaching new cargo heights in July, Port of Los Angeles volume remained strong in August. The Port efficiently processed 958,355 Twenty-Foot Equivalent Units (TEUs), nearly the same as last year’s robust performance.
“The Port of Los Angeles moved nearly 2 million containers in July and August combined,” Port of Los Angeles Executive Director Gene Seroka said at a media briefing. "That’s the best two-month stretch for any port in the Western Hemisphere. Retailers and manufacturers have continued to bring goods in early, both to get ahead of holiday demand and to hedge against any shifts in trade policy.

END OF CURRENT CONTAINER SURGE
ON BLOOMBERG'S 'BALANCE OF POWER'
| | August trade volumes at the busiest container gateway in the US held near an all-time record set in July, but are set to drop by 10% this month as President Donald Trump’s tariffs take effect and trade war uncertainty continues to mount. | | VINCENT THOMAS BRIDGE PROJECT MOVES FORWARD WHILE ADDED HEIGHT PROPOSAL DISCUSSIONS CONTINUE | | |
The design phase for the Vincent Thomas Bridge Deck Replacement Project — a massive project set to close the bridge to traffic for more than a year beginning in late 2026 — is 95% complete, the California Transportation Department said this week.
On a separate track is a proposal to combine the deck replacement work with raising the bridge higher over the water to allow larger ships to pass underneath and gain access to several of the Port of Los Angeles’ terminals.
