Severe traffic congestion in France disrupting shipments

The port of Marseille in France, has been experiencing severe traffic congestion since the 18 September.

The mounting congestion is preventing the docking and unloading of containers in a timely manner at the port of Fos-sur-Mer.

Since Monday, 20 September, a number of carriers have been unable to access cargo and collect any containers from the port. This will continue until the situation improves.

Furthermore, a strike is likely to start from 1 October.
