The Cave-In-Rock Ferry is closed due to Ice on the Ohio River.
Ice has been accumulating at the Kentucky landing for the last few days. The ice has built up to a point the ferry had to cease operation just after 2 p.m., today.
The ferry connects KY 91 with Illinois Route 1 across the Ohio River between Crittenden County, KY, and Hardin County, IL.
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.
The Cave-In-Rock Ferry is operated by an independent contractor with joint funding from KYTC and Idot through a ferry authority.
