Shanghai Lockdown |
An autonomous vehicle delivers critical supplies to residents in a locked down block in Shanghai, China Wednesday April 20. The vehicle was introduced there after over two weeks into the Covid-19 lockdown and is a lifeline for residents stuck inside their homes as Shanghai lockdown now a month old continues. Despite partial openings, a massive traffic glut at the ocean port due to ongoing testing of cargo truckers has slowed down cargo movement to a crawl. Truckers additionally need a 48-hour nucleic acid test report and a territorial pass to gain highway access. Truckers also may only access PVG cargo facilities with a Green Pass Certificate. U.S. to Shanghai by air dribbling in with limited schedules and top rates only. PVG not yet fully reopened is expected to be on the air and sea cargo critical list in terms of full recovery for some time to come with the backlogs. Neighboring cities continue to absorb cargo from the ocean port and airport, but space is at a premium. Add Kunshan, Suzhou, Guangzhou, and Zhengzhou, to gateways that that are accepting cargo from air and port but now even these alternatives are increasingly being overwhelmed with restrictions and delays. |
