The Federal Maritime Commission (FMC) continues to take steps to ameliorate the US port congestion problem, this time with a focus on boxes.
The US agency announced the creation of six Supply Chain Innovation Teams on Wednesday.
The teams will have two objectives: To make sure truckers are able to drop off and pick up a container in one stop — a so-called "double move" — and to bring certainty to container due dates in an effort to improve the flow of containers.
