Ferry could be enjoyed by everyone

PLEASE may we have the ferry service we used to enjoy across the River Arun reinstated?

If I remember correctly, this was considered recently, but the cost of providing a boarding point at Pier Road was said to be too expensive.

Now a new river frontage is to be built, surely this is the time to incorporate a ferry access in the design.

I am sure a ferry would be popular with visitors – everyone enjoys a ferry trip – and would also be used by local residents.

I love to take my grandchildren to the open spaces of West Beach, but for them, and me now, it is a long walk over the footbridge and along Rope Walk. If we drive (though we would prefer to walk), the limited parking at West Beach is often full.

Am I alone in thinking a ferry service would be an attractive amenity for Littlehampton?
