Ferry hike?

I hear the Studland/Sandbanks ferry prices are going up yet again. Didn't they have a big hike just a few months ago? Anyone know any more?

So far as I understand, they had the Public enquiry a few months ago, and now they're enacting it.
Car £3 each way.

I asked the Ferry Company what the position was. This was the reply:
Hi,
The prices for cars and HGV's did go up on the 1st April from £2.80 to £3.00 for cars/light vans and from £5.60 to £6.00 for HGV's. Book ticket prices have also increased, for cars/light vans the prices are now £24.00 for a book of 10 tickets (20% discount) and £112.50 for a book of 50 tickets (25% discount).
If you require any further information please contact us again.regards
