The shipping company has made plans for heavy berthing and the route will gradually resume
During the epidemic prevention and control period, the backlog of heavy container trucks outside the Yantian port area continued to increase, which had a certain impact on the port area and surrounding traffic, import and export. At this stage, with regard to the steady resumption of work and production in the Yantian port area, the major liner companies have stated that they have made plans to re-berth at the Yantian port area as soon as possible, and the routes are gradually returning to normal.
Lin Lixin, deputy general manager of South China COSCO Shipping Container Lines Co., Ltd., said that the company is very confident in the steady resumption of work and production of Yantian International. The company has made plans to re-berth at Yantian Port. It is believed that the liner routes in Yantian Port will also be available. Will soon return to normal state.

Guangzhou Port Co., Ltd. Nansha Container Terminal Branch

Affected by the Yantian Port epidemic before, some heavy containers were diverted to Nansha Port, causing Nansha Port’s business volume to soar by 30% (Nansha Phase II’s business volume in June increased by 50% year-on-year in May), and also caused a large port traffic jam.
It is reported that this time Guangzhou Nansha Port suddenly announced the suspension of all foreign trade export business, which is a temporary measure for the oversaturation of the terminal, and it is expected to initially resume within two days.
If the current congestion situation in South China ports needs to be fully recovered, I am afraid it will take some time
