....In fact the world bank suggested improving the ferry service rather than build a bridge due to the low volume of traffic.

And isn’t it the crux of the matter today? Low volume/fixed costs = high rate. Lower volume/same fixed costs = higher rate. Then higher rates = lower volume = higher rate.....and so it goes.

The world bank was correct.

i see bigger trouble ahead for the bridge. And BJ does not have a solution!

BTW, didn’t the EU also advised against Skeldon?
