The OffPeak hours program runs Monday through Thursday from 6:00 pm to 3:00 am and Saturday from 8:00 am to 6:00 pm. Regular daytime shift hours at container terminals at the ports are 3:00 am to 6:00 pm. Since July 2005, the program has helped ease road and terminal congestion during peak daytime hours.
