Terminal closure in Ningbo leads to traffic jams in front of ports

Congestion at China’s two main container ports of Shanghai and Ningbo worsens in the wake of the Covid related closure of a terminal. Around forty container ships were waiting at the outer anchorage off Ningbo Zhoushan Port on Thursday. It was about ten more than at the start of the week, news agency Reuters reported. Work was completely suspended at the Meidong terminal from Wednesday on after a worker tested positive for Covid-19. Restrictions were imposed on workers and ships at other terminals in Ningbo.
