Pressure is mounting on the state government to commit to building a ferry terminal at Wickham to create an increase in public transport.
Members of the Stockton Community Action Group, Great Life of Wickham and Fern Bay and Fullerton Cove Progress Association, today joined Newcastle MP Tim Crakanthorp in issuing the plea.
It follows reports that the Hunter Development Corporation is due to sell its last stretch of land at Honeysuckle.
Mr Crakanthorp says "they're the last blocks of land so whoever buys them needs to make a contribution... so we can actually get that ferry wharf locked in."
"More and more commuters are coming off the interchange there (Wickham) and also so many apartments going in, we need another ferry stop."
