The new Water Taxi Ferry Service from Haverstraw to Lower Manhattan has been delayed from the August 1, 2007 start date until September 4, 2007. The Rockland County Executive C. Scott Vanderhoef has stated that a federal funding cut of $280,000.00 was to blame for the delayed start of the new ferry service. Commuters that have been excited to start riding the new ferry service will have to wait one more excruciatingly long month.
The ferry will cost $7.00 each way to Yonkers and $14.00 each way to Lower Manhattan. Please, visit http://www.HaverstrawLife.com for more information about this service and links to the NY Water Taxi website.
