SpeedFerries to introduce foot passengers
Friday, June 27, 2008

Foot passengers will soon be able to travel with SpeedFerries on their service between Dover and Boulogne.

Since launching their operation, with one high-speed sea-cat, the company has only taken people in vehicles.

Now chief executive Curt Stavis has announced that a new foot passenger service will be launched on Friday July 11, but only for a limited number of people.

Up to 16 pedestrians will embark on the SpeedFerries shuttle bus directly outside the Hoverport at Dover and then be transported onto the Speed One craft for the 50-minute crossing.

In Boulogne, foot passengers will be taken to a drop off point directly outside the port, only a short walk from the town centre.

SpeedFerries operates up to six crossings a day.
