to the jura development trust that have put many hours into the project

I do hope that the ongoing actions of jurastores do not put a end to this service

I have used this service many times over the last year it is well thought out and a asset to Jura and Islay

with timetables intergrated with public transport links
it’s a a pity argyll and argyll and bute could
not do this with other services encouraging a greener enviroment keeping trafic of the roads

thanks to jdc

I am not to sure about the exact date but will post more info on that in the next months. Being a rewarded service hopefully means that the chances should now be even better to prolongue the trial phase and make it a regular and perhaps year round service. I think an island with more than 200 people deserves it's own ferry, there should be no discussion there :-) All the best Ron Hi Dave, the ferry service should operate between April and September, from 2008 to 2010.
