Read the city discussion in its historical context

The city water-taxi pilot presentation documents a discussion of commuter use and operating restrictions. It should be read as an archived presentation rather than a current timetable.

Confirm the journey with the operator

Review the route, departure location and travel terms for the journey you intend to take. Use the operator's water-taxi page instead of relying on old capacity or travel-time assertions.

Check the ticket terms before purchasing

The published prices below are historical article examples. Confirm the actual ticket, journey and any restrictions with the operator. The city's public transportation information is a separate source for planning alternatives.
