Abstract:This report assesses the prospects for enhanced alternative transportation services and infrastructure at the National Park Service unit of the Fire Island National Seashore. The park staff believes that enhancement of alternative transportation services can help facilitate access to the resources of Fire Island, and support the needs of year-round residents, seasonal renters, and day visitors. The assessment is based upon a thorough survey of existing services, a market survey, and projections for modest visitation growth.
The survey results and recommendations for system improvements follow descriptions of the current transportation system at Fire Island. Specifically, additional ferry routes are recommended to compensate for unmet visitor demand. Also, the report recommends ferry terminals be built to allow for better usability, and proposes the creation of a learning center in accordance with survey findings.
