UPDATE 18/05/17
Wightlink car ferries to and from Fishbourne will use Portsmouth International Port (Cruise and Cross Channel Ferry Terminal) on the 24th May. This will allow our contractors to carry out work at Portsmouth car ferry terminal. As crossing times will be longer, we have drawn up a revised timetable for these days.
In addition, please note:
- NO VEHICLES WILL BE ACCEPTED AT PIP WITHOUT A BOOKING
- No stand-by traffic will be accepted at PIP
- Dangerous goods cannot be shipped during these days
Here are the full details provided by Wightlink:
Tuesday 18th April : Wightlink ferries become smoke-free.
Smoke-free ferries are safer and cleaner, which is better for everyone. The decision was taken following a fire on an outside deck of a ferry, which started in a cigarette bin.
Monday 25th April - Thursday 27th April : Overnight closure of Ports-Fish route. Works commence Monday night and conclude Friday morning.
Extra sailings on Lym-Yar route
