Due to congestion on the Isle of Wight Festival site and severe congestion surrounding our Fishbourne terminal the Portsmouth – Fishbourne service is currently delayed by two to three hours.
Emergency traffic plans are being implemented in Portsmouth, whereby passengers are being marshalled to Southsea Common to awaiting a sailing. Some passengers have also been diverted to Lymington in an attempt to ease congestion.
