The number of container ships waiting to enter the adjacent ports of Long Beach and Los Angeles remained elevated as goods crossing the Pacific continued to face delays of more than a week to reach docks on the U.S. West Coast.
Thirty-three vessels loaded with containers were anchored Sunday outside the biggest gateway for American trade with Asia, compared with 34 a week earlier, and 16 more are scheduled to arrive over the next three days, according to officials who monitor traffic in southern California's San Pedro Bay.
The average wait for berth space was 7.7 days, down from 8 days in mid-February, according to the L.A. port.
