By Andy Greaves - October 2, 2024

As of the 1st October 2024 the USA Longshoremen (port workers) are on strike over labour negotiations.

This has led to the closure of all U.S. East and Gulf Coast ports and is likely to cause severe delays and disruptions. The strike includes major ports such as Baltimore, Boston, Charleston, Houston, Jacksonville, Miami, Mobile, New Orleans, New York/New Jersey, Norfolk, Philadelphia, Savannah, Tampa and Wilmington.
