    I work the ports of Newark as a truck driver and so many things could improve on the port side of things to be overall more efficient . As truck drivers we spend 3 to 5 hours a day at times just to return a empty container and pickup a load. Worst port as of today is Pnct . Would be nice if cheddar looked into them and see how different they are to the other ports that share the harbor with them.

      Would it be better to move the freight by rail a couple miles away from the city to a dedicated container center where they could be put on long haul trucks? So the trucks wouldn't have to go through city traffic just to get to the port and then more traffic to leave the city.

      @@AG-yc7vt the ports do have rail inside of the ports that would go inland, the truck drivers typically pull loaded containers and deliver to warehouses in the tri-state. From there long haul drivers get loaded and make the journey. We mostly use interstate 78, 80 and i95 from there we can go ti any near by state pretty quickly but most of our day is spent inside inefficient ports

    Been to some of the New York harbors since early 2000s and recently. It hasn't changed much, while Asian countries like Japan, South Korea, China, Singapore, etc are sooo advanced now. It's so efficient, on time (especially in Japan), computerized with driverless vehicles moving containers, clean ports, etc.. you name it. US is ages behind Asia in transport.

    The amazing thing about the Bayonne Bridge being raised is that it was done on time (minus some added time due to extreme weather) and the bridge AND waterway both stayed open while it was done. Also, while they raised the bridge, they couldn't move where the feet of the bridge are (the Bayonne side is literally in the middle of a residential area. It was a totally amazing thing to see being done bit by bit over the years.

    Shipping containers can also be loaded onto trains as well as truck trailers. They call that "intermodal". Large ships anchor a little bit south of the Verrazano Bridge for the Coast Guard to inspect (and I think they're waiting for a harbor pilot). My landlord's day job is being a tugboat captain. I saw a video on a trainspotter channel in which there were containers on flatbed trucks, one container per truck. The trucks were then parked on railroad flatcars and shipped by rail. It struck me as rather silly.

      That's called ToFC Trailer on Flat Car.
      And if you ship the container without the chassis. In a well car that designation is CoFC Container on Flat Car. And some trailers are still just trailers. We ship into Elizabeth Marine Allot put it on the train in Cincinnati. There are racks we put 4 chassis on and ship them like a container as well. Just 4 pins is all that hold a container to the chassis. And then zip tie the safety catch shut locking the handle.

  • @Mr.Septon
    @Mr.Septon 2 года назад +23

    I would imagine we are steadily approaching a time limit before a lot of our largest, or at least most critical ports, will have to either split function, or be moved to new locations where larger ports for the realistically growing future can be built and expanded. I imagine we will largely wait until we have to rush to truly make the replacement.

    • @sailingspark9748
      @sailingspark9748 2 года назад +3

      Where would you put them? The Ports are where they due to a number of reasons. Not only sea access, but access to deep water. The Delaware bay shore of New Jersey is very "empty", but it is also mostly all marshes and the bay is very shallow. To build a new port just south of the Delaware Memorial Bridge in Salem County would require dredging millions of Cubic feet of Mud, filling in wetlands (a big no no) and then you would need to connect the port to the existing highway and rail system. What you ask would be a big undertaking and probably not worth the time, effort, and money needed to do it.
      What is going to happen is a total collapse of the global market of "disposable" items. I am not talking dixie cups and trashbags, but cheap items that have a very short finite life before they need to be replaced because they cannot be repaired. Not only can the people not afford to keep replacing broken items, but the world cannot afford the costs involved in manufacturing, shipping, selling, and even disposing of them.

    • @Mr.Septon
      @Mr.Septon 2 года назад

      @@sailingspark9748 do you make some valid points, sure, but regardless of disposable items, as populations increase and we become more globally intertwined, we will continue to increase for the foreseeable future. This is why countries around the world are build new massive ports that can handle current expansion of shipping. Eventually we either build new ports or expand the ports that we have. There isn't much getting around it.
      Do I think we need to make many changes? Yes. Do I think many of those changes will occur? Also yes, but to outpace other growth is just highly unlikely. A lot of countries in the west are relying on ports from other era's that could and thus far have relatively kept up, but there is a limit.

Savannah Garden City Jacksonville Charleston Houston New Orleans Port Lauderdale Baltimore Dundalk Wilmington Norfolk Portsmouth. They all have size requirements for boats Panama canal size and smaller the bigger boats are primarily Asia to Europe thru the Suez canal. So NY NJ port authority will need to dredge the channels deeper for starters.

    The largest port in the country is Los Angeles/Long Beach. It was the most efficient port as far as moving cargo. However, the liberal State and local governments have really bogged things down by not allowing diesel or gasoline trucks to enter the port area. They can either be CNG, compressed natural gas or electric. You can always count on the government to screw things up.

      imagine looking a group of people upon who's labor rest the entirety of modern civilization and thinking 'nah, they got it too good' yeah sure, hire more people to deal with increased volumes, but union bashing is almost never a reasonable argument

      @@andrewemerson1613 the union isn’t allowing temporary workers to come in. They’re using the unfortunate situation to delay and squeeze more money out. I like many unions. My dad has worked in one for decades and it’s been great. But every organization can use some criticism. Unions are so bloated and take in way too much money to just give to politicians.

      @@realmechanicalengineer5792 so your argument is that the union should allow another source of unprotected labor, therefore removing all of their power as unions derive all of their negotiating capacity from representing the whole pool of labor. a union allowing large pools of UN-represented labor into the mix is basically the same as disbanding

Secure the border or vote Republican and I'm a Democrat who just said that
