Ferry OPEN again today, closed for weekend

Go to Live Graph Online
Cave In Rock Ferry is OPEN today, but will remain idle through the weekend, possibly until sometime Monday or Tuesday.

River levels dropped enough to allow the ferry to serve many of the regular commuters on Thursday. However, Ohio River floodwaters are once again on the rise, likely forcing the ferry to close for a few more days starting Saturday.

The Ohio River was at 40.7 feet on the Shawneetown gauge when the ferry halted service on Feb. 25.  

The accompanying graph shows projected levels on the river through next week.
