A FERRY service that carried its two millionth passenger this year is to cease operations from Sunday week.
Funding talks have broken down for the Greencastle-Magilligan ferry that has crossed Lough Foyle between counties Donegal and Derry since June 2002. The ferry is often used by cross-Border workers and holidaymakers.
A notice on each pier says the Lough Foyle Ferry Company regrets the service will be suspended from the close of business on Sunday, October 2nd.
The notices say directors of the company hope the suspension will be temporary, and they look forward to recommencing operations early in 2012.
