Plan for ferry service during Pomeroy Mason bridge repair
Mason and Pomeroy officials met on the Ohio River bank to outline repairs needed to the Mason and Pomeroy levees and bridge approach works to run two ferries during a bridge shutdown from March 15 to November 15. Ferries would ease lines on both shores, with funding through the U S Army Corps of Engineers and Ohio Department of Highways District 10. The plan includes extending the Pomeroy landing, river current challenges, and a projected monthly ferry cost of about 45000 plus 5000 for landing works.
