Timetable changes for Wightlink during the Great South Run

There will be changes to Wightlink’s sailings to Portsmouth Gunwharf on Sunday 20 October 2024 because of road closures in the city centre during the annual Great South Run.

Two sailings from Fishbourne will be diverted to the Portsmouth International Port (PIP) and will return from there. Wightlink’s timetable has been amended as journey times will be longer.

No foot passengers will be carried on the sailings to and from PIP and customers are advised there may be security checks at PIP.

Drivers planning to take the 10:00 Portsmouth-Fishbourne sailing must arrive before 09:30 to be sure of avoiding road closures.

Wightlink’s Head of Port Operations Dean Murphy says: “We apologise if some of our customers will have to alter their travel plans on Sunday 20 October, but we need to change our operations that day because of the road closures. We have made detailed preparations so our ships can arrive and depart from the Portsmouth International Port efficiently.”
