Dear Intermodal Customer,

Union Pacific is experiencing an increase in empty activity in Laredo, TX which is causing significant ramp congestion at our CY location. In an attempt to maintain  fluidity and operational functionality, empty ingates will be suspended from the Laredo CY, effective Thursday, May 14 at 06:00 CT. Customers are able to return empty equipment at the Port Laredo terminal. Empty reservations will be granted from the Laredo CY and the Port Laredo terminal. Customers will be able to outgate empty equipment from the CY while it is closed for empty ingates.

Union Pacific will continue to monitor fluidity at the Laredo CY and as soon as congestion subsides, empty ingates will be accepted. Customers will be notified via intermodal bulletin.

If you have any questions please contact your Union Pacific representative.
