Answer

Prior to the pandemic officials provided information on the Ferry Service for a heritage project. This has been incorporated into a leaflet which has recently been printed by the Portaferry and Strangford Trust (PaST), and agreement is in place for this to be displayed in the ferry terminal and on both ferries.
