It is with sadness that Jetstream Tours announced that it would be ceasing operations of its Tilbury to Gravesend ferry in March 2024, after Thurrock and Kent County Council decided that the ferry was no longer financially viable to subsidise due to rising costs. It's a huge shame to see the only ferry link between the two counties cease. I thoroughly enjoyed my time on the ferry, as did many members of the community, who may very well have lost a reasonable commute to their job or shopping centre. The removal of this ferry service means that anyone travelling from Essex to Kent will have to rely solely on the frequently congested (and tolled) Dartford Crossing, adding over an hour to journey times between the two towns.
