  • In-terminal truck turn time was 15 minutes at Jacksonville, Fla. (same as in February); 24.9 minutes at Los Angeles (compared to 22.2 minutes in February); and 23 minutes at Oakland (compared to 22 minutes in February), with less than 30 minutes for its overall goal.
  • Lost call percentage was 1.53 percent, compared to 1.57 percent in February with the goal of less than 2 percent.
  • Telephone wait-time was 15 seconds, compared to 16 seconds in February, with the goal of less than 20 seconds.
