　　The West Virginia Department of Tourism and the Cumberland Transportation Department are proud to announce the re-opening of the Ottoman River Ferry. Originally opened in 1811, the Ottoman River Ferry linked Cumberland, Maryland to Harpers Ferry, West Virginia, providing an important supply route between Maryland and West Virginia at the turn of the the 19th century. In operation for more than 70 years, the Ferry closed after a series of devastating floods washed away docking facilities in 1899 and 1924.

　　The Potomac River Ferry runs the same route as the original ferry, transporting pedestrians and vehicles to and from Cumberland and Harpers Ferry. The Ferry currently runs ten times a day on two different boats, the Yankee Clipper and the Rebel Yell. Only the Yankee Clipper carries both massager and vehicles. Absolutely no vehicles over 5 tons are permitted on the ferry.

　　The ferry will begin operation on Sunday, April 2nd, 2006. To celebrate the re-opening of the ferry, all pedestrians and bicyclists can ride for free on Sunday. Normal rates apply for vehicles. See the attached schedule for a list of fares.

　　To prevent over crowing during peak times, reservations are required for vehicles with more than 4 wheels. Vehicle reservations also require prepayment by traveler’s check, bank money order, or credit card. Do not send cash by mail. Personal checks are not accepted.

　　Current driver’s license
