| FERRY SURVEY |
As you know, the future of the Digby-Saint John Ferry is not assured beyond December 2008. The federal government has undertaken one study that helped justify the short-term assistance that enabled Bay Ferries to continue operation after October 2006. Further studies and consultations are being undertaken by the federal government during the summer of 2007.
In preparing for this further consultation on the ferry, a regional group (Bay of Fundy Transportation Coalition) has been created representing municipalities, economic development, commercial and tourism interests. In order to better understand local and regional issues relative to the ferry service, a survey process together with a short programme of consultation is being undertaken so that a well supported approach on economic and social benefits of the ferry can be presented by the Transportation Coalition to the Federal Government and their consultants.
The survey work seeks input from six groups of stakeholders in continued ferry service. Please select the one that best meets your interest by clicking on the appropriate circle. If your interests cover more than one area, please complete separate surveys.
A survey should take no longer than 10 minutes to complete. |
