Emergency Management

The Bristol Port Company prepares for and responds to emergency situations through the Bristol Port Emergency Plan.

The Bristol Port Company has an emergency response team which is available to react to any emergency within the port 24 hours a day.

The port has established an EMC, which can operate "independently" of Port operations enabling business continuity to be maintained during an incident.

The port carries out periodic exercises to test and revise the Emergency Plan. These exercises are geared to National, Regional and local response levels and involves Port Customers, Emergency Services, local Industry and relevant Government agencies.
