I’m a bit confused about the workforce aspect. I thought we covered that it’s more about physical limitations like bridge heights, but I could be mixing up topics from different sessions.

I feel like the number of ships available isn't really the main issue. We talked about how ports need to adapt to larger vessels, so maybe bridge clearance is the right answer?

I remember practicing a question about port infrastructure, and I think railway connections could be a challenge too. It’s hard to remember which one was emphasized more.

I'm not too sure about this one. The available workforce and railway connections could also be major factors to consider. I'll have to review my notes on port infrastructure.

Hmm, bridge clearance seems like the most obvious challenge to me. Those massive ships need a lot of vertical space to pass under bridges.

Bridge clearance, really? I thought the issue was making sure the captains could actually see over the bow of these things. Talk about a blind spot!
