Hudson Overcomes The Polar Vortex
The recent “polar vortex” made this plan of action impossible. The sustained, bitter cold froze the Illinois River at key junctions, making passage by barge completely unworkable. Another solution would have to be found.
By utilizing the rail system, Hudson was able to preserve the customer’s supply chain despite the phenomenally brutal weather. Hudson prides itself on its innovative uses of both ground and water transportation assets, and was happy to employ its knowledge in this situation to keep the customer’s supply chain efficient and robust despite the polar vortex.
