The provincial government has issued a request for proposals to provide roll on, roll off ferry services for the north coast of Labrador.
Randy Edmunds is the MHA for the Torngat Mountains district.
By next summer, residents of northern Labrador will hopefully no longer have to ship their vehicles as freight to get them to other ports in the area.
Once in place, residents will be able to drive on and off the ferry instead of having to load their vehicles aboard the MV Astron and travel as a passenger on the MV Northern Ranger, or fly to their destination as they must do now.
