river ferries
Cross-current water taxis
River ferries are boats that transport passengers, vehicles, or cargo across rivers.
Unlike bridges or tunnels, ferries provide crossings where fixed infrastructure doesn't exist or isn't practical.
Some operate on cables or tracks; others navigate freely.
The river ferry runs every half hour between the two towns.
