Proposed Cross-Border Ferry Route
#FERRY NEWS – Planning applications for a proposed ferry service across Carlingford Lough, are expected to be submitted by a promoter within the first three months of 2013.
Privately backed Carlingford Ferries is proposing to provide a service across the lough connecting Greenore, Co Louth, with Greencastle, Co Down. The company estimates that the ferry service will require an investment of €8 million.
Paul O'Sullivan of Carlingford Ferries said yesterday the company was in the final stages of completing an environmental impact survey and hoped to submit planning applications to the relevant authorities on either side of the Border "in the first quarter of 2013".
If it got the go-ahead, the company said the service could be up and running within a year.
