Crittenden County Judge-Executive Perry Newcom stated that the new schedule is a short-term solution while the ferry’s owner works to recruit additional pilots.
Starting this weekend, the ferry will operate on Saturdays and Sundays from 6 a.m. to 6 p.m. (12-hour schedule), and continue its weekday service from 6 a.m. to 10 p.m. (16-hour schedule, Monday through Friday).
