Savannah’s Trade Center to Reevaluate Water Ferries
Thursday, March 12th, 2015
The organization that runs Savannah’s Trade and Convention Center has completed its legal obligation to fund the deficits incurred by the water ferries that shuttle passengers back and forth between River Street and Hutchinson Island.
So this is the year the Georgia International and Maritime Trade Center Authority needs to look for a more equitable solution to sharing the costs of the operations, authority chairman Mark Smith told his board Wednesday.
“We have been doing this basically by ourselves for 15 years and at a cost of $3.5 million,” Smith said.
