Half-hour SI Ferry service to resume in August after COVID budget cuts
NY Post
Twice-hourly service is coming back to the Staten Island Ferry after being cut during last year’s COVID-19 fiscal crisis, Mayor Bill de Blasio said Tuesday.
Overnight ferry trips will return to the pre-pandemic 30-minute schedule on Aug. 16, the mayor said — more than a year after he nixed the overnight trips to save $6 million. “The Staten Island Ferry is a lifeline for Staten Islanders. It is the way that people connect to so many things,” de Blasio said at a press briefing broadcast from City Hall.More Related News
