The Port of Oakland announced it has launched a suite of digital dashboards on its Oakland Portal website and mobile app, giving shippers, truckers, and community members better insight into how the port is operating in real time.

The dashboards include Dwell Time, Empty Return Instructions, and Ocean Carrier Services and are designed to help businesses plan cargo moves more efficiently, reduce wasted trips, and improve supply chain reliability.

"With these new dashboards, we're giving our customers and partners the tools they need to keep cargo moving, said Port of Oakland Maritime Director Bryan Brandes. "Knowing how long containers are staying on the docks, where and when empties can be returned, and what ocean services are calling Oakland allows businesses to make better decisions, avoid delays, and ultimately reduce costs. This is another step toward a more efficient and transparent port, and we're not done more features are on the way."

These new dashboards were developed using funding from the California Governor's Office of Business and Economic Development (GO-Biz) and builds on the Port's FITS effort, which was launched in January 2024 with funding from the Alameda County Transportation Commission (Alameda CTC). FITS is a collaboration between Alameda CTC, Port staff, the City of Oakland, and the California Department of Transportation.
