In light of the current COVID-19 (Coronavirus) outbreak, it’s more important than ever that we all acknowledge our part to play in keeping our communities safe and well.
The Sandbanks Ferry Company, which runs the chain ferry service between Studland and Poole, has announced that it will be temporarily withdrawing its service to foot passengers, bicycles & motorcycles.
From close of business Monday 23rd March 2020 until further notice, the ferry will only carry cars, buses, goods vehicles and emergency vehicles.
The change in service has been introduced in response to the current coronavirus health crisis to support social distancing guidance. This move is in addition to previous advice given by the ferry company to passengers to be mindful of maintaining distance and to observe hygiene precautions when travelling.
