SYD - Hutchison Ports Terminal Delays Due to Technical and Weather Issues - October 16 2025

Please be advised that Hutchison Ports Sydney is currently experiencing operational delays due to a combination of technical issues and a significant weather event impacting terminal safety and truck servicing.

Current Situation:

• All Automated Stacking Crane (ASC) blocks are experiencing ongoing technical problems.

• Road operations were suspended between 04:00 – 08:59 due to adverse weather and workplace safety concerns.

• 0600 and 0700 time zones have been cancelled, and upcoming time slots are being closely monitored.

• Trucks already in the yard are being managed on a case-by-case basis, with some units non-serviced until systems are restored.

Operational Impact:

• Expect significant delays in import/export truck servicing.

• If time slots are cancelled while trucks are en route or already arrived, futile charges will apply.

• Future zones may still be affected depending on the terminal’s recovery progress.

Next Steps:

• Monitor your reports and booking portals for new time slot allocations.

• Our Customer Service team will provide updates as soon as the terminal confirms service resumption.

We appreciate your patience and understanding while Hutchison Ports works to resolve the technical and weather-related disruptions.
