Therefore, in the interests of safety, the port will need to close its gates for a period of time.

The Container Terminal and Western Gate are currently closed due to high winds. If conditions change, these may reopen through until 1800 tonight.

Sustainability aligned with global goals:
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).
