DOTD provides an update on the ferry service in Cameron Parish

DOTD provides an update on the ferry service in Cameron Parish

The Louisiana Department of Transportation and Development announces the ferry located in Cameron will remain out of service for approximately eight (8) weeks due to mechanical repairs. The M/V Acadia vessel requires propulsion shaft repairs, and must be dry docked to complete.

DOTD is actively working to secure an alternate ferry vessel for motorists to cross the ship channel while the M/V Acadia is out of service. A separate notification will be issued if an alternate ferry will be made available.

Motorists are encouraged to visit MyDOTD at http://www.dotd.la.gov to view and receive scheduled closures and press release notices via email. Call 511 or visit http://www.511la.org for additional information. Out-of-state travelers may call 1-800-ROAD-511 (1-800-762-3511).
