Important Ferry Infomation - Please Read

Published 9 months ago • 1 min read

IMPORTANT

We have been contacted by the Isle of Wight Council and through them the Department of Transport. They need information regarding the impact of delays, cancellations and timetable changes on Wightlink or Red Funnel on residents and businesses.

We have any number of comments on Facebook but we need to have emails; we need you to email us please and we can collate this information.

It would be helpful although not absolutely necessary if you could tell us the date and time of the crossing, the route and how the cancellation/amendment/alternative affected your plans.

Please send your experience to:

​committee@wug.org.uk​

They ARE listening and we need to tell them.

Please send us your stories.
