Ferry line saved after night of talks

Operator and city split the winter deficit; morning sailings resume Thursday.

The agreement, reached at 2am, keeps all four crossings and the dawn freight run. Commuters had faced a 90-minute detour from Monday.

Council negotiators credited the operator's open books. "We argued from the same spreadsheet," one said. The deal runs to 2029.

Fares rise by the price of a coffee in January. The night crossing, cut in 2024, returns as a summer trial.
