Floating Bridge

Public demo planned against floating bridge proposal

Residents unhappy with the proposals to introduce foot passenger fares on the floating bridge at Cowes are planning to demonstrate outside County Hall this week.

Those opposed to the proposed 50p each way fare for over 18s will be demonstrating outside County Hall from 5.30pm 5:15pm on Wednesday 17th September, half an hour before the monthly full council meeting.

Over 100 residents turned out last week to share their views on the proposals for the floating bridge at a public meeting organised by Cowes and East Cowes town councils.
