You have to wonder if the port will lose considerable business long term. I mean, once other systems are put into place, other locations and such, it seems it would be hard to get that business back.

Wise design and improvements could also make it more desirable than ever. The nonstop nature of ports makes improvements hard to do.
I get a lot of info and news on distribution and transportation from being in food industry. Our cabin neighbor works for one of the huge national trucking firms that also does drayage and hub/spoke. They can't roll out the electric semi tractors fast enough because the construction projects are so delayed. It gave me the thought that a lot of strategic improvements could get done as a tangent from this disaster.
