Strengthening of disaster prevention functions in light of typhoon damage

As a result of Typhoon Jebi in 2018, both the Kobe Port and Osaka Port experienced record-high tide levels and suffered great damage such as containers flowing out to sea due to the flooding of the terminals.

From the viewpoint of preventing a repeat disaster, we have worked with the national government and port management body to implement raising work and power outage countermeasures.
