## Monthly Market Report | December Edition 

## US Port/Rail Ramp Freight Index

This month, ITS Logistics continues its recurring US Port/Rail Ramp Freight Index release, forecasting port container and dray operations for the Pacific, Atlantic and Gulf regions.

 

The December forecast identifies continued trends that impact the beneficial cargo owner and unprecedented inventory volumes combined with limited chassis availability.

The latest Q4 forecast also reveals continued improvement in marine terminal operations across the Pacific, Atlantic, and Gulf regions and the West and East inland regions of the United States.
