The concept:
Waitamata Harbour ferry is an eco-friendly system that will help transportation for substantial amount of commuters around Auckland’s Waitemata Harbour. This will also serve as a fast and effective transportation mean for the commuters.
The vision
This harbor ferry is designed to reduce the congestion and the carbon foot print of transport routes. Waitamata has been the main anchorage and port area for the Auckland area. It is well sheltered by both Hauraki Gulf and Rangitoto Island thus providing a good protection in all winds. It also has the provisions for courier services on board along with allowing goods to share waterways with passengers helping reduce the time taken to travel and the impact on the environment.
The limitations
The major limitation of this harbor ferry is it allows the good to share the waterways with passengers. And vessels only has provisions for courier services on board.
Can this be real?
Yes, it can be real, because the ferry is aesthetically designed in such a way that it not only reduces the carbon footprint of the transport routes but also reduces the congestion. The most important feature of Waitemata Harbour is a 70-square-mile (180-square-km) body of water that has maximum channel depths of 33 feet (10 meters) and serves overseas and intercoastal shipping.
