Yellow Roadway Merger?

what terminal are you talking about?

 

A lot of our terminals have the name of the largest city "nearby"..


i.e. I work out of cincy - yet our terminal (241) is close to 20 miles from Cincinnati proper. (west chester ohio)

Winston-Salem is actually Kernersville etc etc / Akron is Copley Ohio / ST Louis is Fenton Mo. etc etc etc

the Keene Vt. (NH) terminal is locates right on the border. (closer to Bellows Falls off of I-91)

 

PnD over Velocity center probably...

or maybe one of them is a RSC.

 

PnD - pick up and delivery = small town terminal in which few if any road drivers operate out of... and about 6 city drivers

Velocity - medium size terminal with mayeb 5-20 road drivers and up to 20 city drivers

RSC - pegional service center - BIG terminals with several hundred employees (usually located near large cities) 150 - 300 road drivers / 8o city drivers and a couple of hundred or more on the dock.

 

We were given a sheet of paper with an explanation of the merger and DOT # to be used.

(to keep on person if we were to get DOT'd)

looks as if most terminals will be jointly merging in larger areas by the end of the year.

Atlanta seems to have the biggest problems thus far since neither terminal (R or Yellow) is really big enough to handle what they already have going on.

Now there will be an Atlanta North and an Atlanta SOuth...

North being the Marietta GA. terminal of Yellow

South being the Roadway terminal in Conley GA.

No word here in Cincy yet as to ow the merge will be done (as far as facilities go).
