The Cave In Rock Ferry has been forced to close due to high winds today. The wind has caused rough water conditions on the Ohio River forcing the ferry to cease operations temporarily.
The ferry connects KY 91 with Illinois Route 1 across the Ohio River between Crittenden County and Hardin County, Ill.
The ferry normally operates from 6:00 a.m. to 10:00 p.m. central time, 7 days a week. The ferry carries about 500 vehicles across the Ohio River in an average day.
