More details

Economic Benefits: A causeway could boost the local economy as it would let the locals move without having to rely on unreliable ferry times.

Tourism: It would mean tourists can move freely without having to worry about catching ferry’s.

Community: It would have a massive impact and would mean they can get resources over more easily (like healthcare) it would also mean that the locals could trust they will get back home in time as it wouldn’t have time restrictions unlike the ferry.
