What’s on the minds of executives dealing with intermodal movement of metals? • deteriorating infrastructure – is there
relief in sight?• Have you started preparing for electronic logs?• How are others finding and retaining
qualified drivers?• Will global shippers leverage the accessibility
of the Panama Canal or will the lack of funding for dredging prevent usage?
• How will the competition between ports affect the steel and scrap markets?
• How will Shale drilling affect crude oil prices?• What do you choose — shorter loading times
or lower service costs?
