Canby Ferry Alternatives Feasibility Study
We’re studying the possible future financial and traffic impacts of various ways to provide transportation across the Willamette River at the current location of the Canby Ferry. A public open house was held in June to talk about the study (see materials) and another open house will be held in fall 2018 to report the results of the study.
The ferry is running on its normal schedule.Hours are from 6:45 a.m. to 9:15 p.m. from March through November.

**The height of the river is determined by information on a county gauge that is read by county ferry operators and sent to the National Weather Service (NWS).
***Operating hours are shortened for the safety of the travelling public, our ferry workers and the ferry itself. While we operate the ferry after dark during parts of the year, we want to limit operating in darkness during the inclement weather season when the river runs high with stronger currents and more debris.
