Mar 27, 2026 12:22 PM

02:48 PM EDT, 03/27/2026 (MT Newswires) -- Cargo traffic at the Port of Los Angeles is expected to rise in the week ending April 11, according to data from the ship-tracking system Port Optimizer.

A total of 100,133 20-foot equivalent units, a standardized measure of cargo capacity, are projected to reach the port in the week, the data showed. That volume reflects a roughly 2% increase from the previous week and a 5.4% decrease from a year earlier.

Twenty freight vessels are scheduled to arrive at the port in the week ending April 11, the data showed. That's up from 16 vessels this week and 19 in the week ending April 4.
