The river level forecast for the Ohio indicates floodwaters will hold steady for the next few days, so Cave In Rock Ferry should be able to continue operating on a regular daily schedule, unless something changes.
Ferry operator Lonnie Lewis is reasonably confident service can continue on the normal operating schedule going forward without further interruptions.
The ferry begins running at 6 a.m., 7 days a week. The last run from the Illinois landing is at 9:40 p.m. The last run from the Kentucky landing is at 9:50 p.m., daily.
Floodwaters forced the ferry to halt service for several days, then fluctuating river levels forced the ferry to run 6 a.m. to 6 p.m. for a few days.
