Permanent Westport Ferry landing in place
The Daily Astorian
Since the Oscar B — the
new ferry between Puget
Island, Wash., and West-
port — began service four
months ago, crews have
continued work on a new
ferry landing on the Ore-
gon-side of the Columbia
River.
The permanent West-
port Ferry landing became
operational this week,
marking the end of a near-
ly decade-long process of
updating the ferry and land-
ings on the Lower Columbia
River.
A temporary dock was in
use since February, and re-
quired a weight limit to only
handle cars and trucks up to
8 tons. As of Tuesday, the
weight limit has been lifted.
Work on the new land-
ing cost nearly $2.5 million.
About $1.83 million came
from the federal Ferry Boat
Discretionary
Program.
Clatsop County, which ap-
plied for the federal fund-
ing, is covering the remain-
ing costs.
“(The project) finally
came to a head this year with
the vessel being finished
and put in service,” Clatsop
County Public Works Direc-
tor Michael Summers said.
“There is a whole new land-
ing in Westport and com-
pletely revamped one on the
