Businesses in Picton say they are being kept in the dark by the Ministry of Transport on a proposal to move the inter-island ferry terminal from Picton to Clifford Bay, south of Blenheim.
The Picton Business Group, which represents about 70 operators, says it has heard nothing from the ministry since a report was commissioned last year on the move.
Chairman, Graham Gosling says the ministry has now appointed a consultant to do a business case study on the Clifford Bay proposal.
The ministry says much of the information it has gathered so far is commercially sensitive.
