Container lines fear further congestion following an outbreak of Covid-19 at a container terminal at Ningbo port’s Meishan Island.
Ningbo Meidong Container Terminal, a subsidiary of Ningbo Zhoushan Port Co, suspended operations on 11 August after a worker tested positive for Covid-19.
That has led carriers to warn shippers of disruption to shipping schedules as the prospect rises of worsening congestion in China’s eastern ports.
