Letter to the Editor: Pink Route service is unreliable, Minister

Frequent breakdowns: the Pink Route ferry, Georgia (File photograph)
Dear Sir,
I read in Monday’s Royal Gazette (November 2, 2026) that Minister Owen Darrell said "...we want to ensure that residents and visitors have access to safe and reliable transportation“
Well, Sir, those who live on or near Harbour Road from Burnt House Hill to Crow Lane have very limited public transportation. On weekdays there is no ferry service between 8.30am and 4pm and on weekends there are no ferries at all!
Only the Georgia is in use and she breaks down frequently — seven times so far this year. A new boat is desperately needed on the Pink Route.
