Containers are not the only thing moving at the VPAPD. This week our staff participated in the ADP 5K in Downtown Norfolk which The Port of Virginia is a sponsor of. Great effort by all!

Large trucks and buses have huge blind spots. If you can’t see the driver in their mirror, they likely can’t see you. Give them space and pass safely.

Today is a day to honor and remember the brave service members who have made the ultimate sacrifice to keep us safe defending our freedoms.

On Memorial Day we take time to reflect on those sacrifices and the impacts it had on those left behind. Their sacrifice will never be in vain.

On behalf of the members of the VPAPD, we thank those who served and honor those who did not make it home.

Hey Boo Boo, Is That a......Shipping Container?!

We had a "beary" busy morning at Portsmouth Marine Terminal with an unauthorized visitor.

Thank you to the Portsmouth Police Department, Portsmouth Animal Control, and the Division of Wildlife Resources for your assistance.

As we continue to remember the sacrifices of those who came before us, we would be remiss if we did not acknowledge the effort our staff puts in everyday to ensure that America's Most Modern Gateway is safe and secure. Our biggest asset is our staff. Thank you for your service to the Port of Virginia.
