I’m not so sure - it’s got a financial backer, who has a background in venture capital (I think) and seems very keen. I think the risk is more that, in the absence of someone pushing the better route, this is let through because of the public clamour for something to happen

Well, who knows. Perhaps it's the only option to run it from there, but it will need planning permission, and there may well be material reasons against granting that. I'm afraid I don't know what planning issues may arise for a river crossing. I still think the plan with the temporary decks seems to be the best option by some distance.

Oh, I agree, too--I doubt any such proposals will be entertained seriously once they get put before people who know what they're doing. You always get a flurry of suggestions for just about anything in such cases, often under the banner that 'something must be done'. I'm sure a ferry service would already have been launched if (a) it was easy and (b) idiots stopped trying to play politics with it.
