As of November 1, 2023, there will be a significant adjustment to the Traffic Mitigation Fee (TMF) imposed on shipping containers. The new rates reflect a heightened emphasis on managing and alleviating traffic congestion in ports and surrounding areas.

Specifically, the TMF for a standard Twenty-foot Equivalent Unit (TEU) container will increase to $40.00 per unit. This increase underscores the importance of incentivizing efficient and timely cargo handling practices to minimize disruptions to transportation networks.

For larger Forty-foot Equivalent Unit (FEU) containers, the TMF will rise to $75.00 per unit. This steeper rate for FEUs acknowledges the additional resources required to manage and move these larger containers, further encouraging the optimization of logistics operations.

The rationale behind these adjustments is to encourage shippers and carriers to adopt more efficient and environmentally friendly practices. By increasing the cost of congestion-causing activities, the revised TMF aims to promote smoother, more streamlined port operations.
