Maersk update for Canada port congestion

Transportation modes impacted: Rail and Truck services  

Rail

CN: Due to congestion in Toronto, CN is metering the number of Toronto-bound releases from Prince Rupert to ensure they do not gridlock its facilities.

CP: Toronto-bound traffic is no longer being metered. However, dwells may remain high due to yard capacity. We are working with terminal leadership to load the longest dwelling.

Centerm Terminal in Vancouver: Yard utilization is currently 113%. This is causing additional delays for all volume on terminal due to containers being buried. We are working with the terminal to load the longest dwelling containers daily. Below is a list per CP destination denoting dwell times with container counts in parentheses:

CP Vaughn: 0-10 days (416), 11-20 days (18), 21-30 days (34), 30+ days (26)
CP Montreal: 0-10 days (132), 11-20 days (4), 21-30 days (66), 30+ days (20)
CP Detroit: 0-10 days (89), 11-20 days (17), 21-30 days (8), 30+ days (1)
CP Bensenville: 0-10 days (59), 11-20 days (16), 30+ days (8)
CP Edmonton: 0-10 days (18), 30+ days (11)
CP Minneapolis: 0-10 days (26), 11-20 days (2), 21-30 days (7)

Prince Rupert: Yard utilization is currently high. To combat the Toronto congestion on terminal and ensure vessels are not delayed, operations is utilizing an off-site yard near the terminal for all new incoming Toronto containers. As space clears on dock they will load to the rail. Below is a list per CN destination denoting dwell times with container counts in parentheses:

CN Brampton: 0-10 days (2), 11-20 days (172), 21-30 days (2), 30+ days (7)
CN Montreal: 11-20 days (16)
CN Memphis: 11-20 days (4)

Truck

Truck wait times at both the CN and CP rails in Toronto have improved in the last couple weeks. Volume continues to arrive in Toronto at high levels causing final mile deliveries across the board to be delayed. We are working with our truck vendors to obtain additional capacity to support the volume. Containers are being targeted based on longest dwell.

CN Toronto Dwell: 12 days
CP Toronto Dwell: 13 days

Below are the truck wait times at the CN ramps in Toronto:

Brampton CCT- less than 60-minutes 
Malport CCT- less than 60-minutes 
MISC CCT- less than 30-minutes
