We Demand Better
Community Led
The Solent Transport User Group is Community Interest Company. We are an independent organisation advocating for improved cross-Solent ferry services.
The Beginning
We came together in response to Wightlink’s failure to reinstate a full and reliable foot passenger service following the lockdown. We established a Facebook group to gauge public interest which has grown to more than a thousand members in just 2 months.
Join Us
We promise to work with the ferry companies and others on your behalf to get us all a better deal for this absolutely essential service link to the mainland.
We are marooned without it!”
Solent Transport User Group’s Purpose
The company’s main purpose is to improve transport across the Solent, especially for people on the Isle of Wight and people with special needs (patients, students, disabled people).
It plans to do this by engagement, negotiation, sharing information, and raising awareness
