Passengers' disembarkation site shifts in Khabarovsk due to Amur river level affecting heat pump operations
Flooding Threatens Khabarovsk's Berths No. 3 and No. 4
Khabarovsk, Russia - The Amur River is currently experiencing high water levels, posing a threat to berths No. 3 and No. 4 in Khabarovsk. According to Khabarovsk Krai Today news agency, rain-induced floods are expected on multiple rivers, not just the Amur [1].
The Amur River's geography, characterised by a vast marshy plain with braided channels and many islands and sandbanks, makes it prone to flooding during high-water seasons. In these periods, the river frequently overflows, inundating adjacent lowlands and river ports, including Khabarovsk [1].
The impending floods may necessitate changes to the passenger ferry sailing schedule in Khabarovsk. Although no new schedule has been announced yet, temporary flooding typically results in suspensions or delays of ferry departures and arrivals at affected berths, possible rerouting to other less impacted berths or terminals, and public announcements about changes to sailing times and passenger boarding procedures.
Local authorities and ferry operators are expected to issue updates as conditions evolve to ensure passenger safety and minimise disruption. To stay informed about the latest developments, it is advisable to check official Khabarovsk port or ferry service websites or local news for any new sailing schedules and operational notices.
For the latest information about the current situation, contact the dispatcher at 8-924-310-61-39.
