Maersk Line, the world's largest operator of container vessels, will become the first ocean carrier to take advantage of a new incentive program at the Port of Virginia designed to encourage transport companies to reduce air pollution from commercial vessels while at berth. 

The Foss vessel Delta Mariner struck the Eggner Ferry Bridge, which services both U.S. Highway 68 and Kentucky Highway 80, resulting in its collapse, according to the Kentucky Department of Transportation.

According to Dynamar, total collective 2011 container volumes at Los Angeles, Long Beach, Oakland, Seattle, and Tacoma dropped to 19.1 million TEUs, compared to 19.2 million TEUs in 2010. 

Workers in the Port of Antwerp will support a planned 24-hour general transportation strike across Belgium, starting Monday morning, in protest against the country’s government to meet the European Union's financial targets.
