New York-New Jersey port opens to shipping again after major hurricane
MAJOR container terminals in the New York-Jersey harbour were to be up and running Tuesday after being shut down by Hurricane Sandy, which closed the port and blacked out much of the city.
"The container terminals at the Port of New York and New Jersey (PANYNJ) will be open for business November 5," said the port authority website.
Norfolk Southern and CSX railways were again moving trains into and out of ExpressRail Elizabeth Facility.
The port authority has completed surveys of all berths in Port Jersey, Port Newark and Elizabeth. All berths at these facilities are free of obstruction, said the PANYNJ statement.
