Can You Hear Me? U.S. Ports Dead Spots - OceanWaves
"The fight for a slice of the Transportation Bill pie is as fierce as a Florentine gladiator match. The argument for an efficient transportation system is not new. But it\u2019s more than roads and bridges. Ports need to take a priority. These locations are the points of origin processing over 90-percent of the world\u2019s trade. The ports are the funnel in the flow of trade. It makes sense to make sure this funnel has no cracks so trade can flow smoothly through the entire pipeline of trade. But if you want to wait for the federal government to be the savior of transportation you are going to be waiting for a long, long, time. To get something done sooner rather than later, nothing is better than a public, private partnership. It\u2019s the best of both worlds.\nJack Hedge - Executive Director, Utah Inland Port Authority, Salt Lake City, UT\nAndrew Scott - CEO, QuayChain, Los Angleles, CA\nLori-Ann LaRocco - Writer, Freightwaves - West Milford, NJ"\nFollow FreightWaves on Apple Podcasts\nFollow FreightWaves on Spotify\nMore FreightWaves Podcasts\n\nLearn more about your ad choices.
