Ferry forward thinking

- Deb Hunt Moonah Stephen Jeffery Sandy Bay Daniel Hackett Launceston

REGARDING the Bruny Island ferry, for goodness sake people, get your act together and quickly. Consider the tourism factor (it isn’t going away), the Dark Mofo influx, predict that the traffic just might increase during busy times. Plan for extra ferries and incorporat­e some vision and forward thinking. Hello? How hard is it?

Bruny hints

TO those people who still actually live on Bruny Island: can’t you take the hints (“Ferry queues blasted”, Mercury, June 11)?

Halls Island pods

I’M more than happy to undergo a rigorous assessment process for our Halls Island project, including the upcoming RMPAT appeal. What is completely unacceptab­le is the continuous misreprese­ntation of the project in the Mercury, describing the proposal as a lodge or resort. Four pods barely bigger than a standard bedroom is hardly a lodge, and any such descriptio­n is simply misleading and inflammato­ry.
