Easing port congestion was the focus of an executive order signed by Governor Gavin Newsom last week and a federal partnership announced this week.

The executive order signed by the Governor on October 20 directs state agencies to develop longer-term proposals that support port operations and goods movement for consideration in the January 10 Governor’s Budget.

This week’s agreement with the U.S. Department of Transportation (USDOT) aims to speed up projects to modernize port operations and supply chain processes.
