Maersk said the Shanghai lockdown will severely hurt trucking services and increase transport costs, as China’s intensifying efforts to fight the spread of COVID-19 further rattle global supply chains.

While it has kept its airports and deepwater port open, the city has imposed stringent movement curbs, barring unapproved vehicles from streets and telling millions of people not to leave their homes.
