Council members Amanda Farías and Shirley Aldebol introduced legislation that directs municipal agencies to evaluate the feasibility of a ferry service to City Island. The bill, numbered 1032-2026 and assigned to council districts CD-18 and CD-13, orders the agencies to conduct a study on whether a new ferry route would be practical and beneficial.
Committee hearings on the proposal are scheduled for next week, allowing council members to review the findings and consider the measure further.
The initiative seeks to expand transportation options for the Bronx neighborhood of City Island by exploring a potential ferry link.
