[sustran] Re: Urban water transport

Goa state, in western India has many many creeks and rivers, some 20 of
which are served by ferry crossings.

I don't know of any specific websites, but there are many Goa-specific
Lists you could try for.

Auckland New Zealand has a relatively comprehensive ferry system - but I

have seen little evaluation of the kind you seek published on the web. 
It all tends to be bundled together as public transport, together with 
rail and bus.  You could have a look at www.arta.govt.nz - which is the 
public transport planning agency for Auckland - emails to key people may

generate more info than a web search alone.
