Trailer hand-off was discussed on another article a day or two ago. Basically, crossing sites are highly congested and there is no physical space to do that.
Shoot, MOST of the truck stops in my area are congested (one new one isn’t) and this is not even a high density trucking area compared to many.
I can imagine what the situation at the border crossing sites is like.
I suppose this should free up some truckers and some goods for deliveries inside the US? Fine with me!
We had a vacation a few years ago which included Calgary and then Glacier National Park (on the US side).
The border crossing to Montana was tiny—fortunately we were the only car crossing at the time.
Five trucks would have caused a traffic jam there.
