The ports of Tees and Hartlepool have been served for over one hundred years by
a dedicated and professional Harbour Police force.
The Harbour Police operate 24 hours a day, 52 weeks of the year. The team of officers
patrol the ports of Tees and Hartlepool, detecting crime and providing as safe an
environment as possible whilst also protecting the Port’s assets, personnel and
