The Port Authority of New York and New Jersey’s (PANYNJ) gateways saw cargo volumes grow in February by 4.5 per cent.

Domestic and international freight activity were up the authority says, despite the 2016 leap year effect.

Growth was led by the domestic sector, which saw a 9.5 per cent rise while international freight activity grew by 1.9 per cent.

Among the airports PANYNJ operates are New York JFK International Airport, and Newark Liberty International Airport.
