It’s that time of the year where the freight and shipping season will be closing again.
But even though the shipping closing dates were put out in early August, there is a lot of freight to be shipped up from the terminal and dock in Lewisporte.
Gary Latimer is the General Manager of Nunatsiavut Marine Inc.
He says MV Astron will make another 2, 3 or 4 more trips up the north coast communities, there are also times when they get the MV Northern Ranger to help with cargo.
Latimer says this is the last year for both vessels to serve Labrador.
A new ferry will take over in June which will be managed by Labrador Marine Inc from out of Happy Valley-Goose Bay.
