Newly released U.S. Coast Guard video offers visceral proof of just how extreme the congestion has become at the ports of Los Angeles and Long Beach, undoubtedly a historic maritime traffic. The new view from above reveals a vast armada of container ships scattered at anchor across California’s San Pedro Bay.
As of Feb 12, there were 25 container ships at berth in Los Angeles and Long Beach. Thirty-two container ships were at anchorage. That’s roughly the same level that has been at anchor since the beginning of this year. (The record of 40 container ships at anchor was hit on Feb. 1).
