Mobile Gains Parity With New Orleans Barge Rates
Mobile business interests celebrate new Mississippi River barge line tariffs that bring parity with New Orleans for domestic shipments. Rates from Illinois to Wisconsin will move by rail to Simis and then on to barges on the Mississippi, with northbound moves to Louis and Chicago to follow. The change is expected to boost Mobile freight by water, as shippers begin ordering goods for barge delivery and savings are cited on boots and shoes, flour and iron cargos.
