Saia reduces transit times from Nashville, Tenn.
By CCJ Staff
Saia Inc. announced that it has reduced transit times from the company's terminal in Nashville, Tenn., to facilities in Kansas City and Springfield, Mo.; Detroit and Jackson, Mich.; and Cleveland, Toledo and Mansfield, Ohio.
Saia says customers now will receive a one-day delivery improvement on freight moving between these points due to the reduced transit times, and that transit times also recently have been reduced from 11 terminals in the Midwest to more than 30 other facilities in the company's 147-terminal network.
The Johns Creek, Ga.-based less-than-truckload company says the transit time reductions were made possible because of continued network optimization that has allowed for more direct moves, and that the improvements build on reductions made earlier this year. Saia says it continues to provide customers with 97 percent plus on-time service in its one-day lanes and 98 percent on-time service in its intrastate lanes. |
