Service expected to resume Wednesday morning

Paducah, KY (January 9, 2024) — The Cave-in-Rock Ferry is temporarily closed due to high winds.  The ferry halted service about 5 p.m., CST.

Winds out of the west southwest at 20 miles per hour have created hazardous river conditions on the Ohio River at the ferry crossing.

Based on the forecast for tonight, the ferry will remain closed until Wednesday morning.

The Cave-in-Rock Ferry will provide timely notice should the wind force a change in plans to reopen Wednesday on the regular service schedule.
