The autonomous government of Madeira (Portugal) announced a new international public tender for a ferry service connecting the archipelago to the Portuguese mainland.
The announcement comes after the deadline for previous tenders passed without a single bid submitted.
The concession is for operating a 300-passenger ro-pax ferry between Funchal and the Portuguese mainland. The return journey should be made once a week.
