SOLANO COUNTY– The California Department of Transportation (Caltrans) has temporarily suspended service of the Real McCoy Ferry on State Route 84 (SR-84) until further notice due to emergency repairs.

Crews are now working to repair the boat’s propulsion system after the boat hit a log during its scheduled morning service across Cache Slough.
