I live in the USA and I am concerned about the future. I created this blog to share my thoughts on the economy and anything else that might catch my attention.

Los Angeles Port Cargo Traffic
I've updated a previous chart with the data from August, 2007.
Inbound traffic appears to be forming a peak.
This shows the year over year growth and zooms in a bit.
Love the site, the graphs on land use/ ag production were great.
Re: LA port cargo, I think a more meaningful graph would include traffic into ALL US ports. The LA / Long Beach complex is a mess and beyond physical capacity. Traffic is beginning to flow via all water service to other ports.
Cargo I once brought through LA now goes via Savannah.

Hi,
ReplyDeleteGlad you like the site. It's just something I do to fend off the insanity (or add to it, lol).
That's an interesting anecdote about LA.
I have another chart that shows all US ports if you haven't already seen it.

Unfortunately, the data isn't quite as timely.
