Hear of the MASSIVE growth at the Port of Long Beach – Dr. Noel Hacegaba [Talking Issues #46]
In this episode of Talking Issues, Curt Pringle sits down with Dr. Noel Hacegaba, CEO of the Port of Long Beach, for a clear breakdown of how goods move from global shipping lanes to stores and homes across the United States.

You will also hear what caused the pandemic era ship backups, why moving more cargo by rail improves speed and reduces congestion, and how the port is investing $3.2 billion to build the world’s largest in port rail yard and cut ship to rail transfer time toward 24 hours.
