Portsmouth To Seek Ferry Services From Bristol to Prudence, Hog

The Portsmouth Town Council will seek requests for proposals to provide ferry services to Prudence Island, as well as Hog Island. 

The Prudence Island Ferry, the only means of public transportation for Portsmouth residents from Prudence Island to Bristol, will end its service on Dec. 1. 

The Portsmouth council voted Monday night for the town administrator to draft a RFP for ferry services to Prudence Island. 

The council is also looking into adding ferry services to Hog Island, too. Ferry services to Hog Island have not existed for more than a decade.
