It might have gone past unnoticed, but the ferry industry (at least in Europe) in general has been shrinking significant the last 20 years. At the same time air travel and car usage has gone up. Train usage seems to sit somewhere between.
A revival of the ferry industry, even if it just because of brexit, is interesting. The industry is also in dire need of modernization and electrification, and if done, could be much more ecological than bridges and increased road capacity. Energy efficiency in transport is generally in favor of more transportation over water.
