HOME THE RIVER ABOUT US ECONOMY COMMUNITY GALLERY NEWS SHIPS, CARGO & TRAFFIC THE RIVER NEVER STOPS. Video MANAGING RIVER TRAFFIC Our port is extraordinarily busy, in the 264 miles of water covered by local pilot groups, 70-150 ships are routinely moving at any one time. Each must navigate through tight spaces, sometimes only having 100 feet between one ship and another. Pilots must think about what will occur in 10 minutes and what will incur in an hour, as well as, be informed about the docking options for their ships. For this reason the traffic logistics team is operating behind the scenes 24 hours a day maintaining critical communication with pilots. They carefully monitor river traffic in order to make decisions to utilize manpower efficiently and dispatch pilots at approximate times. The logistics team is detailed, highly skilled at projecting outcomes of traffic moves, and above all else able to effectively communicate with people from a wide variety of interests.
