FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

J-Mack Ferry
Returned To Service
Wednesday, April 18, 2018 at 1:30 PM
Lower Water Levels and Reduced Currents Reported

SOLANO COUNTY – The California Department of Transportation (Caltrans) returned the J-Mack Ferry to service on Wednesday, April 18, 2018 at approximately 1:30 PM. The ferry is located on State Route 220 (SR-220) in the Delta.
Caltrans determined water levels had decreased and currents had receded enough to return the J-Mack to service.

The ferry was closed on April 9, 2018 due to high water levels and abnormally strong currents.

The J-Mack Ferry runs on a cable across Steamboat Slough between Ryer Island in Solano County and Sacramento County. And provides around the clock service on SR-220.

For the latest, please call the Caltrans Ryer Island Ferry Update Line at (510) 622-0120.
