BREAKING FERRY NEWS | Service is suspended

Cave-In-Rock Ferry suspended operations last night after the states and the ferry operator failed to reach a new contract agreement before the current funding agreement expired.

At this time, no contract has been agreed upon and the ferry will remain idle until a compromise can be reached.

Local officials remain hopeful negotiations will continue and that service could resume if an agreement is finalized in the coming days.

Stay tuned to The Crittenden Press. We will be working to provide any updates as negotiations continue.
