Nel 2004 il porto di Portland ha stabilito un nuovo record di traffico

Nel 2004 il porto di Portland (Oregon) ha stabilito il proprio nuovo record di movimentazione delle merci con un totale di 12.581.369 tonnellate, con un incremento del 5,2% rispetto al 2003. Il precedente record era stato stabilito nel 1999 con 12.076.886 tonnellate.

La crescita è stata determinata principalmente dall'aumento delle esportazioni di cereali e dalle importazioni di siderurgici. In flessione invece il traffico di autoveicoli e di container. In merito agli sviluppi del traffico nel settore dei container, ieri la Port of Portland ha ricordato che la Hanjin Shipping incrementerà la capacità delle navi che scalano a Portland, compensando così la perdita dei servizi di Hyundai Merchant Marine e di "K" Line.
