The Forts Ferry Crossing (formerly Delaware City–Salem Ferry and Three Forts Ferry Crossing) is a ferry system on the Delaware River that serves Forts DuPont and Delaware in Delaware and Fort Mott in Pennsville Township, New Jersey. It is operated by the Delaware River and Bay Authority (DRBA). The ferry operates on weekends from the last weekend in April until the last weekend in September and Wednesday to Sunday between June and Labor Day.
In March 2015, DRBA officials announced that the Delaware City–Salem Ferry service changed its name to the Forts Ferry Crossing. The ferry returned to its regular schedule between Fort Mott State Park in Pennsville, New Jersey and Delaware City, Delaware, with service to Salem discontinued.[2]
