As of the 18th October, Pink Water Taxis have extended their operating hours to 10pm every Friday and Saturday night. (last pickups will be made from the point at 9:45pm)
This initiative is being brought to all offshore residents by the Scotland Island Recreation Club. Over the past five years the Recreation Club has steadily raised funds through cafés, plays, concerts and other events.
These monies are used for community equipment and activities. A decision was made at the September SIRAC meeting to dedicate just over $2,000 to subsidise the water taxi service over the summer period.
This is a trial and it is hoped that it will lead to more offshore residents being able to venture out to socialise and participate in cultural and other activities.
