The latest news: Recently, the epidemic in Tianjin has rebounded, and the number of newly confirmed cases has increased sharply from 6 cases on September 23 to 42 cases yesterday (September 26)!
Affected by the severe epidemic situation, the Tianjin Binhai New Area Epidemic Control Command issued a notice early this morning:
According to the epidemic prevention and control situation, in order to maximize the protection of people's lives and health, and to curb the risk of epidemic transmission with speed, in accordance with relevant laws and regulations and relevant provisions on epidemic prevention and control, after comprehensive assessment by the expert group, the Binhai New Area is now designated as high-risk, medium-risk areas and static management areas.
The area where the Secretary of the Tianjin Municipal Party Committee moved in overnight and quickly demarcated high-risk and medium-risk areas and static management areas was the Tianjin Binhai New Area, where the world's eighth largest container port, Tianjin Port, is located!
According to the Tianjin branch, the Tianjin Port yard is still operating normally. As some personnel are under home quarantine, the number of staff at Tianjin Port is less than usual and the port's operating efficiency has slightly decreased, but there is no plan to suspend operations.
In addition, to ensure the operation of highway vehicles for the Tianjin Port, major highways are now open to traffic. Huisheng Wharf, Lingang Pier 4, and Lingang Pier 10 all require truck drivers to provide a valid nucleic acid report before entering or exiting.
The Binhai New Area today issued a notice on the demarcation of high- and medium-risk areas and static management areas. In the static management areas, except for vegetable markets, supermarkets, pharmacies and other business premises related to people's livelihood, medical insurance and supply, the rest will temporarily suspend business.
Although the operations of Tianjin ports and terminals are normal so far, given that the area where Tianjin is implementing epidemic control is adjacent to the port, the situation is very similar to the epidemic control that occurred near Ningbo Beilun Port on January 1, 2022. Although the port is normal, obstruction of highways and traffic into the port may be inevitable.
Warm reminder: If you have any shipping arrangements related to Tianjin Port, please adjust them in time and pay attention to the official epidemic prevention and control measures and port shipping schedule announcements, pay attention to the real-time situation of Tianjin Expressway, and avoid the risks and losses caused by freight delays.
