The reinstatement of a ferry link between Cork and Britain is not feasible in the current economic climate, according to a report prepared for Cork County Council and the Port of Cork by consultants Strategic Transport Solutions International. They were commisioned to undertake a feasibility study of reopening the link Fastnet Line ceased sailings in 2011.
The report concluded that in the present “economic and competitive climate”, a new service cannot be justified commercially on the basis of the volume of passengers and freight achievable in the short term.
