A proposed new €80m zero-emissions passenger ferry service for Cork Harbour — announced last year to some fanfare — is now on indefinite hold.
Last May, Portus Greenway Limited, trading as Harbour Link, announced it was in the advanced stages of planning for the project.
At the time, the company’s CEO, Aidan Coffey, said he hoped to lodge planning applications within six to 12 months, with a view to the first all-electric ferry sailing by early to mid-2027.
Now, Mr Coffey has said the proposed ferry service — which had been envisaged as carrying up to 1.5m passengers annually — is on hold.
