A proposed ferry link between Ramsgate in the UK and Ostend in Belgium hangs in the balance ahead of a vote on budget cuts by the local council tonight.
Thanet District Council, which owns and operates Ramsgate Ferry Port, will vote on whether to cut £730,000 in funding for the port during its 2019-20 fiscal year.
The savings, which have been proposed in the council’s draft budget, could make it impossible to re-open Ramsgate Ferry Port.
