Question:
To ask the Minister for Infrastructure, in relation to the historical context of the Strangford Ferry, why her Department has not installed information panels in the Strangford terminal passenger waiting area or in the passenger compartment of the ferries that tell the history of the ferry crossing and its value to linking communities.

Answer:

Prior to the pandemic officials provided information on the Ferry Service for a heritage project. This has been incorporated into a leaflet which has recently been printed by the Portaferry and Strangford Trust (PaST), and agreement is in place for this to be displayed in the ferry terminal and on both ferries.
