I agree with the Cornor Brook Landing it would knock off 218 Kilometers on the trip to St Johns less pollution, safer driving with less distance,goods could be cheeper with less fuel and driver time

if Marine Atlantic had the ferry terminal in Corner Brook, there wouldnt be as many of these bad weather delays as the problem is docking in Port Aux Basques. Sure the seas were rough but most of these boats can handle the weather just not the docking when they get here. You will not see this changed until someone in Government has the skin to make the change.
