The Chittagong Port Authorities has hoisted alert no 3
Chattogram port has shut down its operational activities including loading and unloading goods temporarily for the approaching severe cyclonic storm Bulbul this evening.
Besides, the Chittagong Port Authorities has hoisted alert no 3 in the port immediately after the Met Office advised Maritime port of Chattogram to hoist danger signal number six.
The action has been taken to keep the port's jetty and goods along with loading and unloading equipment safe, said port secretary Omar Faruq.
The vessels waiting in the port are being sent to the sea to avoid damages to be caused by the heavy waves created by cyclones.
