Mersey Ferries Grounded Until New Boat Arrives | Liverpool News

from Liverpool News Today | 2 Min News | The Daily News Now!

Mersey Ferries are in full meltdown—commuter and River Explorer services grounded for at least five days, possibly weeks, after the Snowdrop Ferry (the only one left) hits a snag. With the Royal Iris retired, no backup means total gridlock. Engineers are on it, and buses are replacing ferries for commuters. But there’s silver lining: the brand-new £26 million Royal Daffodil, built right in Birkenhead, is nearly ready and should end these shutdowns for good.
