Despite reports that the Port of Miami was closed in the wake of the widespread power outages being experienced in central and south Florida this afternoon, Freightscene.com has learnt that the port is operating as normal.

Public Affairs Manager at the Port of Miami, Andria Muniz has advised Freightscene.com that the Port does indeed have power and is operational.

The Port of Miami lays claim to being Florida’s leading Container Port in Florida, with figures from the last financial year indicating that the port saw some 5.3 million tons of imports, with exports totaling 3.4 million tons.
