View from the Orwell Bridge. The Port of Ipswich is situated at the head of the River Orwell, 12 miles from the open sea, within a short sailing time from the North Sea shipping lanes. The major trunk roads A14 and A12 are both nearby and connect to the M1 and M25 respectively. The port also has an active rail line at its West Bank.
