5/12/08 Quote:
UPS Freight announced Monday, May 12, that it has reduced transit times on nearly 1,000 traffic lanes originating in metropolitan areas in the Southwest and Southeast to points across the United States.
The company says transit times have been reduced by one or two days from points in 11 states, including Alabama, Arkansas, Florida, Georgia, Louisiana, Mississippi, North Carolina, South Carolina, Oklahoma, Tennessee and Texas; the customer improvements are being made without adjusting rates. The latest round of enhancements follow the more than 8,000 lanes that were improved nationwide by the company in 2007.
“UPS Freight is on a path to create a combination of reliability, technology and speed that no other competitor can match,” says Jack Holmes, president of Richmond, Va.-based UPS Freight. “We are aggressively rolling out improvements in all areas of the business to keep pace with the evolving needs of our customers. This latest round of lane enhancements comes on the heels of a new ontime performance guarantee and freshly integrated shipping and visibility technology.” http://www.etrucker.com/apps/news/article.asp?id=69034 | |
