Hope the bridge is working.
I went to cross woodland ferry the other day after checking in with the website bragging that the new one was installed, ribbon cutting done, and a go on Oct 31st. NOPE, Closed!
What's up with that?
Nice that they give us 2 days notice that it will be closed for 2 months!
While it will still be a pain in the A**, I suppose it makes better sense to take it out now rather than wait until summer like they did with Whitehaven ferry a year ago. Idiots !!!

I agree. They usually post a sign when they are going to do something like that. Thats great management for you. I wish sharma was still there.
