Picton is concerned about what's ahead - with the Government refusing to fund cost increases to the Cook Strait mega-ferries project.
KiwiRail says the plan to have two new ferries and bigger, better ports can't go ahead without Government funding.
Marlborough Chamber of Commerce Chief Executive, Pete Coldwell, says a number of people moved to the region for ferry-related jobs.
"There are obviously just questions over what the situation is, jobs-wise, for the next week, next month and the next year."
