Please be advised that **protestors are currently blocking the entrance gates at Victoria International Container Terminal (VICT), Melbourne**.
## Current Situation:
- **All import, export, and dehire zones have been cancelled until at least 18:00 this evening.**
- No truck access to the terminal is possible at this time.
## Operational Impact:
- Container **collections and drop-offs are suspended** until access resumes.
- Once the terminal reopens, heavy congestion and delays are expected as operators work through the backlog.
- Customers should anticipate potential scheduling disruptions and rescheduling of deliveries.
We are actively monitoring the situation and will provide updates as new information becomes available. Thank you for your understanding as we work to minimise disruption to your cargo movements.
