Upper Ferry Closed

Upper Ferry is down today because the ramp cables broke. Part of ramps went into the river. 3 J's Construction is trying to find parts of ramp at this time. Not sure how long it will be down, said County Executive Culver.

Better hope OSHA, MOSHA, or the Coast Guard don't get a hold of that picture. No life vests and there a commercial company. The local OSHA inspector is most likely salivating at the mouth at the thought of the fine he could issue with that picture.

isn't this ferry cost prohibitive now. why not just get rid of it. isn't it an antiquated system anyway.

for mosha regulations to be able to be enforced you have to a employee. owner operator mosha does not apply.

They need to charge a fee to cross on the ferry, that way the folks that live in West Nithsdale and teach at UMES will move out of Wicomico County along with their horrible children!

What part of the ramp are they looking for? Use the county fire department dive team to locate it.
