Napier Port is currently monitoring Cyclone Vaianu, which is forecast to approach the east coast of the North Island over the weekend.
While there is still some uncertainty around the system’s exact track and intensity, current guidance indicates it is likely to bring strong winds, heavy rain, and rough sea conditions to Hawke’s Bay.
Based on current forecasts and internal planning, we have updated our forward schedule to reflect expected disruption to marine operations, as a safety precaution. At this stage, there will be no vessels in port from approximately late afternoon Saturday 11 April through to midday Monday 13 April.
This position will be reviewed as more accurate forecast information becomes available, and we will provide updates if there are any changes to vessel schedules.
Thank you for your understanding as we prioritise safety during this period.
At the United Nations summit meeting in September 2015, world leaders adopted 17 global goals (and 169 targets) as a set of universal goals that aim to address the urgent environmental, political and economic challenges facing our world. These are known as the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs).
