Carlingford Lough Ferry service reopening this weekend Reporter:   ); Carlingford Lough Car Ferry are set torecommence its service between Greenore and Greencastle, Co. Down this weekend. Passengers will be able to hop aboard the Carlingford Lough ferry from this Saturday, May 15th.   Commercial Director Irene Hamilton, commenting on the reopening, said: “We’re absolutely delighted to be opening our service on Carlingford Lough. Like every business, these periods of lockdown have been incredibly challenging, particularly for newer businesses like the Carlingford Lough service. It was a difficult decision to close the service last March, but we knew that it was important for us to do our part on limiting the movement of cross border traffic during the lockdown period.

    The service is owned by the Frazer Ferries Group, which also owns the Passage East Ferry, which operates across the River Suir, and Lough Foyle Ferry, a seasonal service across the picturesque Lough Foyle.     While their service at Passage East, connecting Ballyhack in Co. Wexford and Passage East, Co. Waterford, remained operational during the lockdown, the cross border nature of the Carlingford Lough Ferry required that the service be suspended throughout both COVID lockdown periods. News of the reopening, which was recently posted on social media has been welcomed by the public. Since its launch, the service has introduced a valuable transport link between the Republic of Ireland and Northern Ireland for both local communities and commuters and the tourism industry, linking Ireland’s Ancient East with the Mourne Mountain Region in Northern Ireland.
