Public Hearing on Proposed Cape May–Lewes Ferry Fare Changes
The Delaware River and Bay Authority (DRBA) officials announced a virtual public hearing to discuss the goals and objectives of proposed fare changes at the Cape May – Lewes Ferry.
The intent of the hearing is to discuss the goals and objectives of proposed fare changes at the Cape May – Lewes Ferry. Among the changes to be considered are fare adjustments to reflect inflationary pressures and selected fare decreases to encourage family and muti-trip travel at the bi-state agency’s southern crossing facility.
“We typically introduce a fare change every other year, which is designed to help reduce the operating subsidy of the ferry, but also to make travel for families and multi-trip passengers more affordable over time,” said Heath Gehrke, Director of Ferry Operations. “This year, we are holding a virtual public hearing to get some feedback from our guests as we move to implement some proposed changes. We are interested to hear what the public has to say.”
